The tournament, set to be co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania from 1 – 28 February 2025, will showcase Africa's finest domestic talent.
Ahead of the finals, two rounds of home-and-away qualifiers are scheduled. The first round will take place from 25 – 27 October and 1 – 3 November 2024, with the second round from 20 – 22 December and 27 – 29 December 2024.
The 2024 edition continues the growth trajectory of the CHAN tournament, which has been a platform for highlighting African football's talent since 2009. Senegal won the 2022 edition, and the prize money for the tournament has increased by 60%, with the champions set to receive $2 million.
