For the first time in AFCON history, the tournament will be produced using technical standards comparable to major World Cup broadcasts.

More Than 40 Camera per stadium

Reports indicate that each stadium will be equipped with over 40 camera, far exceeding CAF’s minimum broadcast requirements.

The advanced setup will include:

  • Spidercams suspended above the pitch for dynamic aerial angles
  • Drone cameras for stadium overviews & cinematic transitions
  • Super slow-motion cameras to capture decisive moments in exceptional detail

This level of production has never been implemented in any previous Africa Cup of Nations edition.
