We visited the Green Point Stadium in Cape Town a few weeks ago and compiled a 360º virtual tour with embedded video for your viewing pleasure.

Green Point Stadium will be the venue for one of  the semi-final games of the 2010 Soccer World Cup.

You can read more about the stadium at the Green Point Stadium visitors centre website.

What we’ll do here however, is give you some proper virtual tours and interactive content to explore.

First up: a 360º view from the raised platform in the middle of the stadium, with an integrated video describing what we did there.

Click here for the full screen version.

(By the way: the weather did not allow us to complete the Gigapan.)

Second: a Google Earth tour showing a model of the stadium in 3D.
You need to install the Google Earth plugin to view this, it’s highly recommended!

Simply click on the ‘play’ button to view the Google Earth fly-over.

This is not a video, it’s a fully interactive browser version of Google Earth, so feel free to explore the rest of Cape Town...
(If you’re on a slow connection, replay the tour a few times to allow the satellite imagery to load.)

Thirdly: A collection of 360º images linked with interactive hotspots, allowing you to explore the stadium.

The hotspots taking you to 8 different spots in the stadium are active in the Full Screen version

Lastly, some good old traditional video:
