Thousands of ANC supporters have filled the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein within an hour for the party’s centenary celebrations on Sunday.

Hundreds of people lined the streets around the stadium early today, with parks around the stadium and elsewhere in the city full of ANC supporters singing, dancing and eating while waiting for the gates to open.

Inside, the stadium’s 48 000 seats are  filled with people wearing mainly party colours, yellow and red t-shits, while many are  sitting under umbrellas.

A huge stage filled almost the entire pitch, while hundreds of marshals and security officials in neon green vests directed people to their seats.
