Wizkid is set to make a comeback as a performer at Afronation in Portugal in 2026, following confirmation of this year’s lineup.

The world’s largest Afrobeats festival, Afronation, is scheduled to come back to Portugal in 2026 with an exciting lineup featuring international artists such as Wizkid, Asake, and Tyla. The announcement has sparked waves of excitement across the global music community as fans look forward to another unforgettable edition of the festival.

Located on Portugal’s breathtaking Algarve coast, Afronation has evolved into the leading event for celebrating Afrobeats, Amapiano, dancehall, hip-hop, and other genres.

The 2026 edition is set to elevate the standard even further, with three prominent stars of the genre at the forefront. Wizkid’s legendary discography, Asake’s electrifying stage presence, and Tyla’s rapid ascent with her amapiano-influenced songs have laid the groundwork for a landmark celebration of African music.

The festival will also showcase some of the most dynamic talents from Africa and the diaspora, such as Olamide, Darkoo, Young Jonn, Awilo Longomba, and Bien. Each act is expected to contribute its own distinctive sound and cultural flavour, thereby presenting a diverse and dynamic display of artistic ability.

Since its launch, Afronation has developed into a symbol of cultural pride and global impact, drawing enthusiasts from every corner of the globe.

Afronation Portugal 2026 is taking shape as one of the most unmissable events on next year’s music calendar with this exceptional lineup.
