The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has named six venues for the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) to be hosted by Morocco from 5-26 July, 2025.

The venues are: Olympic Stadium (Rabat), Larbi Zaouli Stadium (Casablanca), Père Jégo Stadium (Casablanca), El Bachir Stadium (Mohammédia), Honor Stadium (Oujda) and Berkane Stadium (Berkane).

The Olympic Stadium in Rabat – the country’s capital – is expected to host the final, but this is not yet confirmed by CAF.

The brand new Olympic Stadium was constructed to host 21,000 fans.

The Larbi Zaouli Stadium in Casablanca is currently the temporary home of Raja and Wydad Casablanca, while their Mohammed V Stadium is being renovated.

The 10,000-seater Père Jégo Stadium, also in Casablanca, is named after former Morocco manager Père Jégo, who is considered one of the finest football tacticians in the country’s history. He managed both Raja and Wydad Casablanca, as well as the Morocco national team.

The El Bachir Stadium in Mohammédia was built in 1954 but renovated in 2019 and is home to local side SCC Mohammédia. The stadium hosted matches at the recent CAF Under-17 Africa Cup of Nations, including the final.

The Honor Stadium in Oujda has a capacity of 35,000 and has played host to several international matches of late.

Finally, the Berkane Stadium is the home venue of RS Berkane and has a capacity of 12,000. It received renovations in 2017 and has hosted both international fixtures and matches in CAF’s Interclub competitions.
