The Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat has been confirmed as the venue for the second leg of the 2026 CAF Champions League final, reinforcing its growing reputation as one of Africa’s leading football arenas.
The decision follows the stadium’s recent redevelopment, which has elevated its facilities to meet top continental standards. Its selection for such a high-profile fixture highlights increasing confidence in Morocco’s ability to stage major football events.
The venue has quickly returned to prominence after renovation, having already hosted a major continental final last year. Now, it is set to provide the backdrop for the concluding chapter of Africa’s premier club competition.
The final will be played over two legs, with the first encounter scheduled for May 15, 2026, at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria, South Africa, before the decisive return leg takes place in Rabat on May 24.
Finalists are emerging from the ongoing semi-final stage, where AS FAR have already secured their place in the final following victory over RS Berkane. The second finalist will be decided between Mamelodi Sundowns and Esperance de Tunis.
With its upgraded infrastructure and capacity to host large-scale events, the Rabat venue is expected to deliver a fitting stage for one of the most important fixtures in African club football.
Anticipation is already building across the continent as fans look forward to a final that promises both quality football and a vibrant atmosphere.
