Polokwane is the capital city in the province of Limpopo. Polokwane (Pietersburg) International Airport can be found five kilometres to the North of the city. To add in a little more confusion it is also sometimes known as Gateway Airport.

It first opened its doors in 1996. Currently the only regular flights being offered are run by South African Airways who fly to Johannesburg four times every weekday as well as operating fewer flights on weekends.

Polokwane has received much more coverage than locals would be used to since the cities involvement in the 2010 World Cup. The Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane was built in order to host World Cup games. It can hold up to forty six thousand people and was named in honour of the once leader of the ANC Youth League. It can be found four kilometres from the city centre located to the east of the cities original stadium.
