Fez — A Moroccan-themed restaurant in Bali is turning the Africa Cup of Nations into a diaspora watch-party moment, with “Habibi Bali” announcing it will broadcast AFCON 2025 matches live on a large projector at its venue in Canggu.
The restaurant, which promotes “Traditional Moroccan Taste” alongside shisha, belly-dance entertainment, and an all-day lounge atmosphere, encouraged fans to book tables to secure seats during big match nights.
A Moroccan corner of Canggu
Located on Jalan Pantai Batu Bolong in the Canggu area of Badung, “Habibi Bali” has positioned itself as a Morocco-forward dining and hookah spot aimed at travelers and local regulars looking for North African flavors in Bali’s busiest beach district.
Its Instagram bio highlights Moroccan cuisine and late-opening hours, leaning into a lounge identity that fits match screenings—food, shisha, and a social setup designed for groups.
Match nights from December 21 to January 18
In its AFCON announcement, the venue said it plans to stream fixtures across the tournament window, matching the official competition dates in Morocco. AFCON 2025 is scheduled to run from December 21 to January 18, bringing 24 national teams to host cities across the Kingdom.
For Moroccan fans abroad—and for African supporters passing through Bali—the Canggu screenings turn the tournament into a shared ritual. It will turn into a place to follow key fixtures, connect with other fans, and keep a line to home while the competition plays out in Morocco.
Why AFCON 2025 is built for diaspora watch parties
AFCON’s Morocco edition is arriving in a calendar slot that overlaps the year-end holiday season, which is expected to push viewing into fan zones, cafés, and diaspora hubs worldwide.
For a Morocco-branded venue like “Habibi Bali,” the tournament is also a cultural showcase. It is an opportunity to pair match nights with Moroccan hospitality and flag-waving energy, even thousands of kilometers from Rabat.
