FIFA have announced that the 2010 World Cup will take place between June 11th and and July 11th 2010.
The format for the tournament is going to be the same as that of Germany this year and FIFA President Sepp Blatter has also stressed that South Africa needs to get a move on saying "we have said that they should bring a little bit of fire to the preparations."
Even though Blatter fired the warning, make no doubt that the event will be taking place in South Africa as planned and now that you know the dates, you can start making plans.
