Host nation

AFCON 2027 in Uganda

Uganda is the most compact of the three hosts, with Entebbe close to Kampala and adventure travel — rafting at Jinja, gorilla trekking in the southwest — within reach of a tournament trip.

On the ground

Getting there, getting around

Airports and transport

Entebbe International is the country’s only international airport and sits about 40km from Kampala — allow an hour or more for the transfer depending on traffic. It is the most compact of the three hosts to move around.

Match-day transport

We arrange airport transfers and transport to the ground for every booking. Once CAF confirms venues we coordinate match-day movement for your group directly — this is the part supporters most often underestimate in an unfamiliar city.

Travel tips

  • Jinja and the source of the Nile are about two hours from Kampala, which makes rafting a genuine day trip rather than a separate holiday.
  • Gorilla permits in Bwindi are strictly limited and sell out months ahead. If this matters to you, it has to be booked before the rest of the trip.
  • Kampala traffic is heavy. Build more time into match-day transfers than the distance suggests.

Where to stay

We hold no published hotel inventory for the tournament period — host-city rates are not yet contracted, and a stadium-distance claim before CAF names a venue would be invented.

Entry requirements

Entry rules for Uganda depend on your passport, not your departure country, and tournament-period arrangements have not been announced. We confirm current requirements for your specific passport with your quote, and we always point you to the official source rather than restating rules that change.

Kampala (90)

Nothing here is contracted inventory: we publish no tournament rate and no availability. Star ratings come from the property, a booking platform or a national tourism board — each hotel’s page says which, and where the address came from.

The other hosts

Combine all three

AFCON 2027 is a joint tournament. Many supporters visit more than one host country in a single trip.

Safari country and East Africa’s busiest gateway

Kenya

Kenya combines the region’s most connected international airport with the Maasai Mara and the Kenyan coast, making it the natural base for supporters who want football and safari in one trip.

Plan my trip

Zanzibar, Serengeti and the Indian Ocean

Tanzania

Tanzania offers the strongest holiday extension of the three hosts — Zanzibar’s beaches and the northern safari circuit are both within easy reach of the mainland gateways.
