"This tournament has grown so much in stature as a premier international event on the SA sporting calendar and I would urge rugby fans to book their tickets early so that they can avoid any disappointment," said Khaya Mayedwa, SA Rugby's Commercial Manager.
"We invested a lot of extra resources into last year's event and the overwhelming feedback from supporters afterwards was that it was definitely best Sevens tournament held in South Africa.
"We are expecting a bumper turnout in George because of the huge amount of interest in Sevens rugby in our country at the moment.
"This is a tournament not to be missed so I would suggest that fans book their seats early so that they would be able to witness another exhilarating World Series tournament."
