Talanta Stadium is now 91% complete and on track for July completion as Kenya intensifies preparations for AFCON 2027.

The Government has confirmed that construction of the Talanta Stadium is now 91 per cent complete and is expected to be finalised by the end of July, as Kenya ramps up preparations for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

During an inspection visit, Cabinet Secretary for Youth Affairs, Creative Economy and Sports, Hon. Salim Mvurya, expressed confidence in timely delivery under a coordinated government approach.

“This is a major facility for AFCON, and we have put the whole-of-government approach behind this project. We are confident that we will deliver it on time,” said CS Mvurya.
