Grammy-winning star Doja Cat landed at Kigali International Airport just before 8 PM on Monday, gearing up for her Move Afrika 2026 headline concert at BK Arena this Tuesday at 8:30 PM Rwanda time.
Straight from the airport, Doja went into rehearsals with her team, giving a peek at what’s shaping up to be a high-energy show. She hasn’t given formal interviews yet,
This isn’t the first time international performers have drawn attention before a Rwandan show. In 2025, Tems cancelled her Kigali concert after reconsidering the situation, while John Legend faced public appeals from rights groups even bringing up how his performance would contradict his foundation but chose to perform, saying music connects people across borders. Doja Cat has stayed focused on the performance and the fans,no official comment on previous debates, just energy and preparation.
Outside of the music, Kigali is buzzing. Hotels are filling up, streets are lively, and social media is full of fan meet-up plans and countdowns to the show. Some are already wondering if local or regional artists might collaborate with her on stage, fans remember previous shows where global stars teamed up with African artists for surprise performances, and the speculation is part of the fun.
Doors open tomorrow. Lights, sound checks, and anticipation are building. BK Arena at 8:30 PM will be the place to be. After Kigali, the tour moves to Pretoria, South Africa, keeping fans across the continent watching closely and wondering what surprises are next.
