What changed
Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda plan to host AFCON 2027 together and offer fans a joint visa for travel across all three countries. The 36th tournament is scheduled for 19 June to 17 July 2027, and would be the first AFCON staged across three nations.
Why it matters
The proposal could turn a three-country tournament into a single travel experience. A fan following matches across Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda would not need to navigate three separate entry systems, at least in principle.
That matters because the tournament’s geography is part of the event itself. The joint visa is meant to make movement between the hosts simpler, but its legal design, eligibility, price, application process and implementation status have not yet been specified. Until those details emerge, the practical value remains a plan rather than a working travel arrangement.
