The world’s biggest Afrobeats and Amapiano festival, Afro Nation Portugal, adds more in-demand acts to an already stellar lineup, all bound for the beach on 26-28th June 2024.

Joining the previously announced global superstar headliners Nicki Minaj, Rema and Asake, popular Congolese singer-songwriter Fally Ipupa is set to bring his irresistible Francophone sounds and undeniable charm to the stacked mainstage bill. Shallipopi, Nigeria's hottest new star and the voice behind hot track ‘Elon Musk’ and ‘Cast’ ft. Odumodublvck, is also now confirmed, following massive sold-out shows in London earlier in this month.

Joining the Piano People stage today as part of a new partnership with Jägermeister is DBN Gogo, a true powerhouse with hits like "Funk 55" and "Bells", Amapiano riser Kmat ready to show the world her versatility and technical skill on the decks, as well as the enigmatic Skyla Tylaa who returns again after an electrifying set in 2023. With these additions joining all the biggest artists from South Africa’s dance explosion, from Uncle Waffles and Major League DJz to Focalistic and Tyler ICU, Afro Nation Portugal 2024 is gearing up to be another vibrant celebration of diverse talents.

Standing as the only festival of its kind, reliably delivering an unforgettable cultural celebration of dance, fashion, food and music on the Algarve’s Blue Flag beaches, this experience is consistently touted as not to be missed as thousands flock back year on year.

Afro Nation Portugal takes place 26-28th June 2024 at Praia Da Rocha Beach, Portimao. Remaining Golden, VIP and General Admission Tickets are available via afronation.com.
