Some female fans inside the stadium
AFCON has always been more than just football, and once again, the tournament is proving why it captures hearts across the continent and beyond.
From the opening whistle, the Africa Cup of Nations delivers drama, colour, culture, and yes, unforgettable beauty in the stands.
Barely four days into the 2025 edition, social media is already buzzing. Cameras have hardly missed a moment, frequently panning to the crowd and revealing stunning scenes of stylish, confident African women lighting up the stadiums.
Every cutaway shot feels like a reminder that AFCON is as much a celebration of African identity as it is a football tournament. Fans watching from home have been quick to react.

Tongues are wagging, timelines are flooded, and jokes are flying about how AFCON somehow manages to showcase beauty effortlessly, without trying.
It’s not forced, it’s natural, just Africa being Africa. From traditional attire to modern fashion statements, the stands have become a runway of culture, pride and elegance.
This is part of what makes AFCON special. No other tournament blends football with atmosphere quite like it.
The drumming, the dancing, the flags, the smiles and the people. The women in the stands embody the spirit of the competition: vibrant, fearless and full of life.
