The stage is set for an electrifying celebration as the organisers of the TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025 announced a star-studded lineup for the official Kick-Off Concert. Global hitmakers French Montana and Davido will headline the event, alongside Moroccan singer Douaa Lahyaoui, Afrobeat sensation Says’z, and French-Moroccan artist Lartiste.
The highly anticipated concert, themed “It’s all about the rhythm, and it starts long before kickoff,” will mark the official opening of Africa’s biggest football tournament. Fans across the continent are expected to gather for a night of music, culture, and unity ahead of the first whistle of AFCON 2025.
Organisers said the concert aims to highlight the vibrancy of African and diaspora music while celebrating the continental spirit that defines the tournament. The blend of global and African stars underscores AFCON’s growing international appeal.
