Bellville Velodrome

The Bellville Velodrome is a 250 meter, multi-purpose indoor velodrome located in Bellville (about 25 kilometers outside of the centre of Cape Town), South Africa. The velodrome was initially developed for the South African Olympic Bid, this venue hosted the World Cycling Federation Championships in 1999. The project was completed in 9 months from inception. The Velodrome features an acoustically treated soffit lining for purposes of hosting music and other entertainment events. The Velodrome was designed as a phased development with seating capacity on completion of up to 10 200 seats. Phase 1 is complete and various designs exist as well as development proposals for the surrounding property to support support the functions of the Velodrome.

The venue has served as Cape Town's main concert venue for the last ten years and has now been replaced by the Grand Arena at Grand West Casino. Its maximum capacity for cycling competition would range from 5-8,000.

On September 5, 2007, WWE's RAW SummerSlam Tour took place with over 7000 fans in attendance.

The velodrome hosted the 2007 UCI "B" World Championship in June 2007.

It is also likely to be the venue for the 2008 UCI Junior World Championships, which have also been awarded to the city of Cape Town.

It was also the home of the Organised Chaos LAN Party, South Africa's biggest monthly gaming event. Organised Chaos moved to a different venue after the commencing of The Galleria Development early in 2012.
