Ayra Starr, Others Set To Headline Afro Nation Punta Cana 2025

Nigeria’s pop princess Ayra Starr and U.S. rap sensation Sexyy Red, and amapiano powerhouse DJ Maphorisa are ready to headline the Afro Nation Punta Cana 2025, from November 7 to 9, 2025, in the Dominican Republic.

Tropical Beats. Bold Energy. Global Icons. That’s the mood as Afro Nation makes its grand return.

Headliners Who Command the Stage

Ayra Starr is no stranger to the spotlight. At just 22, she’s hit 1 billion YouTube views, clinched a BET Award, earned a Grammy nomination, and now, she’s ready to dominate the Caribbean stage. From Bloody Samaritan to Hot Body, Ayra’s silky vocals and fierce confidence make her a perfect fit for Afro Nation’s first-ever Dominican stop.

Sexyy Red brings the fire with her chart-topping trap anthems and in-your-face style. Making her Afro Nation debut, the unapologetic rapper promises energy, edge, and empowerment.

DJ Maphorisa, the maestro of amapiano, returns to light up the crowd. His genre-bending mixes have become a staple at Afro Nation, and fans know to expect an unforgettable sonic experience.

More Stars, More Sounds

Backed by a blend of Afrobeats, amapiano, R&B, hip-hop, and dancehall, the lineup keeps expanding. Nigerian street-hop stars Shallipopi and Ruger are also set to perform, making sure the Naija vibe hits hard on Dominican soil.

Why This Edition Stands Out

World Stage Energy: Afro Nation continues to unite Black music from across the globe, with past shows in Ghana, Portugal, Miami, and Detroit drawing hundreds of thousands.

Women Leading the Charge: Ayra Starr and Sexyy Red’s headlining presence signals a shift in festival dynamics, spotlighting powerful women changing the soundscape.

Caribbean Fusion: Punta Cana’s beaches provide the perfect backdrop for the cultural synergy of Africa and the diaspora. Expect food, fashion, and fandom to blend in vibrant harmony.
