Kenya will host the final of the 2024 CAF African Nations Championship (CHAN) on August 30.

This is after the Confederations of African Football (CAF), in consultation with the three Nations that will host this year's TotalEnergies CAF African Nations Championship Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda (CHAN) 2024 announced the venues that will host the opening, third and fourth and the final match of the competition.
