Doja Cat‘s South African homecoming may have been brought to a halt when Hey Neighbour festival canceled its 2025 staging, but the Grammy winner will finally get to visit her motherland this spring.
Billboard can exclusively announce that Doja Cat will headline the third edition of Move Afrika, in partnership with pgLang and Kendrick Lamar, performing at Rwanda’s BK Arena on March 17 and South Africa’s SunBet Arena on March 20. This year, Move Afrika intends to continue building toward the first-ever pan-African music touring circuit, bringing job growth and increased economic investment to the continent.
“From my South African roots straight to the world stage, we’re bringing energy, purpose, and real change to Move Afrika in Kigali and Pretoria,” says Doja Cat. “This isn’t just a tour, it’s a movement that creates jobs and opportunities that last. I’m proud to be part of something that celebrates Africa’s creativity, invests in its future, and shows the world that Africa isn’t coming, it’s already here.”
Fans can purchase tickets for the Rwanda show, dubbed “Move Afrika: Kigali,” here. Tickets for the South Africa show, titled “Move Afrika: Pretoria,” will be available to Mastercard cardholders during a pre-sale from Monday to Wednesday. World & World Elite Mastercard cardholders will have their pre-sale on Wednesday. The Big Concerts Fan Club pre-sale will take place from Tuesday to Wednesday. Finally, general public on-sale begins on Wednesday on Ticketmaster. Global Citizen will release details regarding limited free tickets in the coming weeks.
No stranger to Global Citizen’s sprawling network of shows, Doja co-headlined the 2024 Global Citizen Festival, where she used her voice to raise awareness for the “millions of men, women and children in Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, the Congo and all across the world, [who] are suffering.”
After launching with a Lamar-headlined Rwanda show in 2023, Move Afrika added Ghana as a host nation in 2024, bringing along Nigeria for a John Legend-led night in 2025. In the years prior, Global Citizen mounted star-studded shows in Johannesburg (2018), Lagos (2021) and Accra (2022).
Doja Cat kicked off her Tour Ma Vie trek in New Zealand last November. She toured arenas across Australia and Asia through the end of 2025, kicking off the show’s South America leg in São Paulo, Brazil, earlier this month. After her Move Afrika dates, Doja will resume her tour, visiting Europe and North America for the rest of the year, before concluding Dec. 1 at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
Last year, Doja earned her fifth Billboard 200 top 10 album with Vie, which spawned a pair of Billboard Hot 100 hits in “Jealous Type” (No. 28) and “Gorgeous” (No. 56).
