Durban July 2020 didn’t get cancelled like other entertainment events due to the lockdown, but will be streamed digitally on YouTube channel and bet365.
The annual horse racing event is set to take place on July 25 at Greyville Racecourse in KwaZulu-Natal.
However, social media users are filled with mixed reactions over the R1900 VIP ticket price.
The VIP packages include “canapés and hot food delivered at your door”, a bottle of Tanqueray gin and a bottle of whisky.
