FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Africa Choice Awards Announces South Africa as Host Country for the 7th Edition
📍 Johannesburg, South Africa
📅 June 12, 2025
The Africa Choice Awards (ACAs), one of the continent’s most anticipated celebrations of African excellence, is proud to officially announce that the 7th edition of the prestigious awards ceremony will be hosted in South Africa.
Slated for 2026, the next edition marks a bold new chapter in ACA history — taking the show beyond Nigeria for the first time since its inception. This landmark decision reflects the ACA’s core vision: to unite, spotlight, and celebrate Africa’s diverse creative brilliance across borders.
Theme: The Culture Reigns
From music and film to digital innovation and fashion, the 7th Africa Choice Awards will honour the power of culture and storytelling across the continent. The theme affirms Africa’s rich heritage, global influence, and the pride that unites us all.
“What started as a dream in 2019 has now grown into a continent-wide movement,” said Thèo Olele, Founder & Executive Producer of the Africa Choice Awards. “Bringing the ACAs to South Africa is not just a milestone — it’s a symbol of how far African creatives have come, and how far we’re still going.”
Over the years, the ACAs have become a defining platform for recognizing outstanding creatives, influencers, brands, and changemakers across Africa. The 6th edition, hosted in Lagos, Nigeria, drew thousands of attendees, millions of digital impressions, and widespread acclaim. Now, as the spotlight shifts to South Africa, the ACA team is preparing for an even more immersive experience — rooted in collaboration, excellence, and Pan-African pride.
Further details on nominations, event dates, host city, and special features will be released in the coming months via ACA Media’s official platforms.
