Afrobeats superstar Davido is set to headline the official kick‑off concert of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Rabat, Morocco, promising fans an unforgettable start to the continent’s biggest football festival.
The event, taking place at the Olm Souissi Fan Zone on Saturday, will also feature international acts such as French Montana, Douaa Lahyaoui, Says’z, and Lartiste.
This isn’t Davido’s first football-themed performance; he previously led the AFCON 2017 opening ceremony, performed at the 2022 FIFA World Cup draw in Doha, and headlined the 2023 Professional Footballers’ Association Awards, reinforcing his global appeal.
The concert highlights African pride and unity, merging music and sport to celebrate culture and identity.
As the AFCON 2025 finals kick off with hosts Morocco facing Comoros at Stade Prince Moulay Abdallah, fans are gearing up for a month-long celebration of football and music, with Davido at the forefront of the musical extravaganza.
