The highly anticipated Tour du Rwanda 2025 is set to deliver not just thrilling cycling action but also vibrant concerts featuring some of Rwanda’s top artists. These shows, organized by KIKAC Music in collaboration with FERWACY, aim to entertain residents where the cycling stages end.

This marks the third time such concerts will accompany the race. In 2023, popular artists such as Mico The Best, Bwiza, Platini, and Chris Eazy entertained fans. “We are inviting cycling enthusiasts to help us choose the cities where the concerts will be held,” said Claude Uhujimfura, head of KIKAC Music.

Speaking about the upcoming race, Freddy Kamuzinzi, head of Tour du Rwanda, revealed its significance. “Tour du Rwanda 2025 will be special as it coincides with the World Cycling Championships, hosted in Africa for the first time,” he stated. “It’s a chance to showcase our readiness for this global event and highlight Rwanda’s capacity on the world stage.”

The 17th edition of Tour du Rwanda will span 812 kilometers across eight stages, starting February 23 and ending March 2, 2025. Key stages include the longest route from Rukomo in Gicumbi to Kayonza, covering 158 kilometers.

Confirmed participants include top professional teams like Israel-Premier Tech and TotalEnergies, alongside continental teams such as Rwanda’s Team Amani and Bike Aid from Germany. National teams from Rwanda, Eritrea, and South Africa will also compete.

Cycling fans can look forward to both world-class competition and electrifying entertainment as Tour du Rwanda blends sports and culture in a celebration of talent and resilience.
