Nigerian Afrobeats icon Davido delivered two unforgettable performances in Rabat, Morocco, as part of the launch of the 2025 TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), captivating thousands and setting an energetic tone for the continent's premier football tournament.
On December 20, 2025, Davido headlined the official Kick-Off Concert at the OLM Souissi Fan Zone alongside French Montana, Douaa Lahyaoui, Says’z, and Lartiste. The high-energy event, blending Afrobeats, hip-hop, and Moroccan influences, drew massive crowds and celebrated African unity ahead of the tournament's start.
The following day, December 21, Davido joined French Montana and RedOne for a spectacular rendition of the official AFCON 2025 soundtrack during the grand opening ceremony at Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium. Titled “Le Show,” the performance combined vibrant choreography, stunning visuals, and powerful music, energizing the audience despite rainy conditions just before hosts Morocco's 2-0 victory over Comoros.
Davido's appearances highlight his status as a global ambassador for Afrobeats, following previous standout performances at events like the 2022 FIFA World Cup closing ceremony and AFCON 2017. Fans across social media praised his dynamic stage presence and hit-filled sets, amplifying excitement for the tournament running until January 18, 2026.
