This initiative falls within the framework of providing a dedicated space for the public to follow Africa Cup of Nations matches, through audiovisual equipment aimed at football fans, enabling them to watch the competition outside cafés and under organizational conditions that seek to ensure the safety of attendees.

The general atmosphere in the square reflected the presence of a diverse audience from different age groups, as citizens followed the matches within the “Fan Zone” amid lively crowd interaction. This gave Bab Al-Maqam Square added dynamism and generated light economic activity in the surrounding area.

These lively scenes are expected to continue during upcoming Africa Cup of Nations matches, given the desire of Sefrou’s public to support the teams and share moments of collective viewing, reflecting a renewed connection to sport as a unifying element within the city.

Moroccan cities generally witness increasing turnout at “Fan Zone” spaces during major football events, as they offer an alternative for open-air collective viewing and help strengthen social bonds around a shared sporting event.

When well organized, such platforms contribute to revitalizing public spaces and boosting local activity, while remaining closely linked to the need to respect safety standards and sound management in order to avoid any disruption or pressure on surrounding facilities.
