What you can decide now, what has to wait for the draw, and the order to do things in.
Plan by where you are
Topic is not the only way in. Pick the moment you are actually at, and we will point you at what is useful now rather than what is useful eventually.
Before the draw. Settle your departure city, your budget and how long you can be away — none of that depends on CAF.
Start following one nation. We track its fixtures for you and shape the trip around where it is drawn.
Build around real matches, cities and dates, and get help with the official ticket purchase.
Not yet — CAF has not published the draw or the fixtures.
Final checks: entry permissions for your passport, transfers, internal routing and what to expect on arrival.

Ticket guidance
The subject supporters most need straight answers on — and the one where getting it wrong costs the most.
Tickets
Understand the official CAF ticket-purchasing process, what Travel Ease can assist with, and how to coordinate tickets with flights, accommodation and transfers.
Travel Ease provides ticket-purchase assistance. Match tickets are purchased through CAF’s official ticketing channel. We are not a CAF partner, sponsor, supplier or ticket seller, and we hold no allocation.

AFCON moments
Seventy years of finals, shootouts and nights that outlived the whistle — official highlights published by CAF, with the travel context around them. It is the reason people cross a continent for a football match.
Latest AFCON travel updates
Travel-planning updates only — ticketing, fixtures, entry portals and our own guides. Not tournament news, and never a rumour.
Ticketing
CAF has not announced a sale date, a price structure or a registration process for AFCON 2027 match tickets. We check its official channel rather than repeating what circulates on social media.
Entry requirements
We re-checked the official Kenya portal address against its certificate and the served page. Requirements themselves are set by the Directorate of Immigration Services, Republic of Kenya and depend on your passport.
Entry requirements
We re-checked the official Tanzania portal address against its certificate and the served page. Requirements themselves are set by the Tanzania Immigration Services Department and depend on your passport.
Entry requirements
We re-checked the official Uganda portal address against its certificate and the served page. Requirements themselves are set by the Directorate of Citizenship and Immigration Control, Uganda and depend on your passport.
Fixtures & venues
CAF has not published the draw, the match schedule, the host cities or the stadiums. Until it does, no fixture-based itinerary can be honest — and nothing on this site claims one.
Travel guide
Why we do not publish a visa table, where to verify your own requirements, and what Travel Ease does.
Each entry is generated from the dates this platform actually records — when a human last checked CAF’s channel, when each government portal was last verified, and when a guide was last updated. Nothing here is written as news.
Popular questions
Including the ones where the honest answer is still “not yet known”.
No. Match tickets are sold by CAF through its own official channel, and Travel Ease is not a CAF partner, sponsor, supplier or ticket seller. What we do is help you prepare for the official sale, tell you when it opens, and build the flights, accommodation and transfers around the match you secure.
Before the draw, what matters is flexibility rather than price. Your team could be based in Nairobi, Dar es Salaam or Kampala, and those are three different itineraries — so the cheapest, least changeable fare is usually the most expensive decision. Settle your departure city and travel window now, and keep the booking changeable until the fixture is certain.
That depends on the passport you hold, not the country you are flying from, and the rules are set by each government and change without notice. We deliberately publish no visa table. Check the official portal for each host country — Kenya operates an Electronic Travel Authorisation rather than a visa — and we confirm the requirements for your specific passport as part of your quotation.
Wherever your team is drawn — which CAF has not yet decided. Until the draw is made, the useful decision is your budget, your travel window and your departure city, because those determine which routings are realistic from where you live. Kenya is the easiest of the three to reach directly, Tanzania has the strongest holiday extension, and Uganda is the most compact.
Yes, and it is one of the most common trips we build — but it needs internal flights rather than road transport. Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda are neighbours with separate immigration processes, and crossing between them under time pressure is very different from moving within one of them. Leave more slack than the timetable suggests.
Almost everyone does, and it is usually the best value part of the trip: the long-haul flight is already paid for, so adding a few nights on the coast or in a park costs far less than making that journey separately. Zanzibar is a short hop from Dar es Salaam, and the Kenyan and Tanzanian parks are reachable from the main gateways.
We publish no figures, because airlines have not released tournament-period fares and host-city hotel rates are not contracted — any number today would be invented. What we can tell you is the components to budget for: international flights, any internal flights, accommodation, transfers and match-day transport, the ticket bought separately from CAF, entry fees, insurance, food and spending, and any extension.
Yes — group travel is a large part of what we do, covering supporter clubs, families travelling together and corporate groups. Groups need to decide earlier than individuals because airlines price group seats separately and hotels release rooms in blocks against deadlines. What we cannot do is promise a group ticket allocation; no travel company holds one.
Tell us your team, your departure city, how many of you are travelling and what you need. A consultant uses that to build the right journey — and tells you plainly what is not yet knowable.
