Afro Nation Punta Cana festival 2025 is set to be held from November 7, 2025 to November 9, 2025 in Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. This will also be the fifth anniversary experience of the larger Afro Nation festival series, which has previously included editions in Ghana, Portugal, and various locations in the US.

Tickets for the festival are currently on sale via the official website of the festival. The link to the website is available on the lineup announcement post over at the official Instagram of the festival.

Tickets are priced at $249 for the three-day package, while other packages are priced between $849 per person and $1,099 per person. Package prices as shown on the website are based on two people sharing one room. There are three package levels available: Bronze, Silver, and Gold.

The festival has explained the difference between packages and weekend tickets in its FAQs:

"A weekend ticket gives you access to the 3 main events over the weekend. Packages are by far the best value, as they include access to the 3 main events, 4 nights' accommodation (you get to choose your hotel), plus airport and event shuttles! Each tier also includes additional perks, which can be found on the packages page."
