CAF unveils star-studded line up of Douaa Lahyaoui, Awilo Longomba and Fuse ODG to perform at CAF Awards 2025

The Confédération Africaine de Football (CAF) has announced a stellar performance line-up for the CAF Awards 2025, taking place on Wednesday, 19 November at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) in Rabat.

The ceremony will begin at 19h00 local time / 18h00 GMT.

Three renowned musicians, Douaa Lahyaoui, Awilo Longomba and Fuse ODG, each representing a different generation and musical expression, will celebrate the continent’s creativity and cultural diversity on Africa’s biggest football stage.

Douaa Lahyaoui, one of Morocco’s most exciting rising voices, has captivated audiences at major national cultural showcases. Noted for her outstanding vocal range and a refined artistic identity, she blends Moroccan influences with modern pop and international tones.

Her presence at the CAF Awards 2025 symbolises a new Moroccan generation confidently carrying the nation’s colours while engaging with contemporary sounds across the continent.

A festive surge will follow with Awilo Longomba, the Congolese soukous legend whose anthems have become classics across Africa. With a career that has earned global recognition, multiple distinctions and enduring popularity, Awilo promises an electrifying performance, true to his hallmark mix of rhythm, dance and generous stagecraft.

His set at the CAF Awards 2025 reaffirms the central place of Congolese music in Africa’s cultural heritage.

Completing the bill is Fuse ODG, a defining figure of modern Afrobeats. The Anglo-Ghanaian star, a MOBO Award winner, has made his mark through international collaborations and a consistent drive to elevate Afro-urban sounds on the world stage.

Seamlessly connecting Accra and London, Fuse ODG embodies a generation that is open, inventive and deeply rooted in African identity as he will bring energy, warmth and lightness to a night dedicated to African football’s finest.

The CAF Awards 2025 will celebrate outstanding players, coaches, teams and officials from the period under review, with a star-studded cast of nominees and guests in Rabat.
