The TotalEnergies African Nations Championship (CHAN) Pamoja 2024

The TotalEnergies African Nations Championship (CHAN) Pamoja 2024 is making history as the first-ever African football tournament jointly hosted by Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. Set under the theme “Pamoja”—Swahili for “together”—the tournament celebrates unity, homegrown talent, and East African pride. Unlike the Africa Cup of Nations, CHAN features players who play in their own domestic leagues, offering a unique stage for showcasing local stars. Beyond football, the event serves as a dress rehearsal for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, which the same trio of nations will also host. Preparations across the three countries have transformed stadiums, training facilities, and fan experiences, with the introduction of a special Pamoja Visa to ease cross-border travel. Tickets have been priced as low as $1 for ordinary seats, ensuring that fans from all walks of life can be part of this historic tournament. More than a sporting event, CHAN Pamoja 2024 is a celebration of African culture, youth, and resilience—bringing people together under the spirit of football and marking a defining moment in East Africa’s place on the continental stage.
