Nigerian stars Davido and Rema have been named headliners for Afro Nation Portugal 2027, with Victony and Odeal also confirmed on the Phase 1 lineup.
The festival returns to Praia da Rocha in Portimão from 9 to 11 June 2027, moving to an earlier slot at the start of the European summer.
Davido and Rema top the bill alongside Congolese superstar Fally Ipupa. Victony and Odeal are listed among the main stage performers rather than as headliners.
The broader main stage lineup includes Omah Lay, Shenseea, Rayvanny and Valiant.
The Piano People stage, dedicated to Amapiano, will be led by Kabza De Small and TxC.

Davido and Rema have both had a strong year. Davido released Oriadé in July, his final album under Sony Music, which debuted at number two on Spotify’s Top Albums Debut Global chart. Rema headlined a sold-out BK Arena in Kigali this month and continues to tour globally.
Victony’s single “SLICK” recently climbed back to number five on the Official Nigeria Top 100 following the release of his album STARLIFE, which debuted at number two in Nigeria. Odeal continues to build an international following with his blend of Afrobeats and R&B.
Priority tickets go on pre-sale on Tuesday, 29 September 2026, at 10:00 AM UK time. General sale opens the following day, 30 September, at the same time, through official Afro Nation channels.
The full lineup is expected to expand in subsequent phases.
