Group stageWhy Morocco for FIFA 2030
Grand Stade Hassan II
Under construction in Casablanca — projected 115,000 capacity, expected to be the largest stadium in the world on completion, and a leading candidate to host the 2030 final.
Well connected from Africa
Direct flights from Lagos, Accra, Nairobi, Johannesburg and Cairo — one of the most accessible World Cup destinations in history for African fans.
Africa's only host nation
For Nigerian, Ghanaian, Senegalese and diaspora fans, attending matches in Casablanca or Marrakech is a homecoming as much as a sporting event.
June–July weather
Warm and dry across most of Morocco in summer. Coastal cities like Casablanca and Agadir are cooler than inland Marrakech.
Cuisine and culture
Tagine, couscous, pastilla, mint tea. The Medinas of Fez and Marrakech are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Visa on arrival for most
Many African and Western passport holders get visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to Morocco — simpler than Spain or Portugal for African travellers.
