The road to TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations Morocco 2025 is officially taking shape beyond the continent. CAF has announced a special Diaspora Tour that will bring the spirit of African football to two major European capitals, London and Paris.
A Celebration of African Identity Across Borders
The first stop will be in London on 28 November 2025 at Below the Lights in Piccadilly Circus, followed by a second event in Paris on 4 December 2025 at the iconic YOYO – Palais de Tokyo.
These gatherings are designed as more than promotional stops, they are a tribute to the millions of Africans who continue to carry their heritage, culture, and passion for football across continents.
At the center of each event, the AFCON trophy will be showcased, symbolizing a shared legacy that belongs to every African, whether at home or abroad.
Honouring Players, Fans, and the Power of Community
CAF’s Diaspora Tour highlights the unique influence of African players thriving in European leagues, while also acknowledging the millions of supporters who fuel the heartbeat of African football from afar.
It is a celebration of community, identity, and resilience, a message that whether you’re in Casablanca, Johannesburg, London, or Paris, the spirit of African football is one language, one rhythm, one roar.
The events are built around music, football culture, and storytelling, offering an immersive experience that reflects the pride and diversity of African nations heading into AFCON 2025.
A Symbolic Start to the Journey Toward Morocco 2025
With this Diaspora Tour, CAF is setting the tone for the continental showpiece. It marks the start of a long moment of anticipation, unity, and celebration leading up to Morocco 2025, a tournament expected to capture global attention.
Beyond football, the tour sends a message:
Africa’s game belongs to the world.
Wherever the diaspora lives, the continent lives with them in chants, colours, rhythms, and dreams.
As Morocco finalizes its preparations for a landmark edition of the AFCON, CAF’s outreach to the diaspora reinforces a simple truth: the tournament may take place in one country, but the celebration belongs to all of Africa.
