If you’re attending the #SuperHeroSunday double-header at Cape Town Stadium on 3 February, make sure you know all the ins and outs of what will be happening on Saturday and Sunday.

All four South African Vodacom Super Rugby franchise teams will be in action on the same day at one venue.

The Lions will be dressed in the familiar webbed suit of Spider-Man; the Sharks will adopt the Black Panther look; the Stormers will be looking to hammer their opponents in the colours of Thor; and the Vodacom Bulls will shield all attacks thrown their way as Captain America.

The jerseys will be exclusively worn in most South African derbies. The teams will wear their usual jerseys for matches against international opposition.
