Government announces six official fan zones for Sunday’s CHAN match against Zambia.
The government has unveiled six official fan zones to give Harambee Stars supporters a lively and secure match-day experience during Sunday’s African Nations Championship (CHAN) game against Zambia.
Sports CS Salim Mvurya said the venues will be located at: Uhuru Park (CBD), Lucky Summer–Ngomo area (behind Kasarani Stadium), Dandora Stadium Utalii (Stima Club), Jacaranda Grounds Kibera DC Grounds
He explained that these sites are strategically positioned across Nairobi to help fans enjoy the match in comfort while reducing crowd pressure at Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani.
Mvurya confirmed that additional security teams will be deployed to protect fans, players, teams, and officials. Entry to Kasarani will be strictly for spectators with valid digital match tickets, with CAF limiting attendance to 27,000 for safety.
He also warned against fake ticket scams, especially from conmen reselling counterfeit entries on WhatsApp.
“Unless you have bought a ticket digitally, you will not be allowed access to the stadium,” Mvurya said.
The CS urged fans to maintain discipline throughout the tournament. He said a safe and orderly match-day environment will strengthen Kenya’s bid to co-host the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) with Tanzania and Uganda.
Kenya could lose future hosting rights if security lapses or crowd trouble occur.
