Afro Nation is gearing up for its fifth-anniversary celebration in 2025, and it’s bringing two of Africa’s brightest stars to the forefront. Nigerian music powerhouses Tems and Burna Boy have been announced as the headliners for the festival, which will take place from July 9 to July 11 in Portugal. This event is expected to once again highlight the global influence of African music.

Burna Boy, a familiar face to Afro Nation fans, will make his return to the festival. His journey with Afro Nation began in 2019, and since then, he has cemented his status as one of the most influential African artists on the world stage. With a year marked by record-breaking performances and international accolades, Burna Boy has become a symbol of African music’s global reach. Fans can expect his electrifying stage presence to light up Portugal as he continues to push the boundaries of what it means to be an African artist in the global music landscape.

Joining him as a headliner for the first time is Tems, whose rise to global stardom has been nothing short of remarkable. Known for her soulful voice and unique sound, Tems has quickly become a force in the Afrobeats scene, representing a new wave of female talent in African music. Her critically acclaimed album, Born in the Wild, has further solidified her place as a trailblazer, and her presence at Afro Nation Portugal 2025 is a testament to the festival’s commitment to celebrating African music in all its forms.

Afro Nation itself has evolved into more than just a festival; it has become a cultural movement that amplifies the voices of African artists. What started on the sun-soaked beaches of Portimão in 2019 has since grown into a global platform, featuring legendary acts like Wizkid, Davido, and Megan Thee Stallion. As it marks its fifth year, Afro Nation continues to bridge the gap between African music and the international stage, showcasing the rich diversity and talent of the continent.

The 2025 edition will also see the return of the popular Piano People stage, dedicated to the amapiano genre, which has captivated audiences around the world. With more announcements expected as the event draws closer, Afro Nation Portugal 2025 promises to be a milestone moment in the celebration of African music and culture.
