DJ Tunez Is Coming to Houston: AfriqueFest World Cup Takes Over NOTO

Presented by ExperienceNoir and Bolanle Media

Houston, clear your calendar. Afrobeats global icon DJ Tunez is bringing the heat to AfriqueFest World Cup — one electric night where the entire continent shows up to play. We’re talking four regions of Africa, a stacked lineup of DJs, and a packed dancefloor at NOTO Houston that doesn’t quit until the after parties at Azura Lounge and Reset Rooftop take it into the early hours.

This is the African celebration Houston has been waiting for. Co-presented by ExperienceNoir and Bolanle Media — the fast-rising Houston media company behind the event’s coverage — with the full night captured across Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, so even if you can’t be in the room, the party finds you. But trust us: you’ll want to be in the room.

This isn’t just a show. It’s the regions of Africa — East, South, West, and Central — united under one roof for a single, unforgettable night.

The Headliner: DJ Tunez

If you know Afrobeats, you know DJ Tunez. With over 1 million Instagram followers and 1.7 million on X, he’s one of the most recognizable names in the global Afrobeats movement. At AfriqueFest, he closes the night with the West African Experience headline set from 9–10PM — the peak moment, in front of a packed 1,500-capacity crowd.

When DJ Tunez takes over, it’s the biggest moment of the evening. And the energy doesn’t stop there — he carries straight into an exclusive after party.

Four Regions, One Night

AfriqueFest World Cup is built around the sounds of the continent, with four regional experiences bringing East, South, West, and Central Africa to life. Here’s the confirmed lineup:

• 4–5PM — DJ Modelo & EJ Billy (Central African Experience)
• 5–6PM — DJ Shinski (East African Experience)
• 6–7PM — Kairos B2B Francis B (Southern African Experience)
• 7–8PM — DJ Khulumars (Southern African Experience)
• 8–9PM — Teemoney / Towii and Flow Izzy (live performance) (West African Experience)
• 9–10PM — DJ Tunez (West African Experience · headline)

Hosting the night: Roselyn Omaka.

It’s a journey across African music, all in one venue, all in one night.

The Venues

The celebration runs across three Houston spaces, with 2,200 total capacity:

• NOTO Houston — the main stage · 1,500 capacity · 3215 McKinney St, Houston TX 77003
• Azura Lounge — “From Nairobi to Jozi” after party · 350 capacity · 8PM–2AM
• Reset Rooftop — the DJ Tunez after party · 350 capacity · 10PM–2AM

The Reset Rooftop after party is the place to be once DJ Tunez wraps his headline set — a curated, premium rooftop close-out to the night.

The Place to Be in Houston

Let’s be real — you want to be in the building for this one. AfriqueFest World Cup puts some of the top African DJs and biggest influencers in the culture all under one roof, and the energy in the room is the whole point. Picture it: DJ Tunez commanding the NOTO main stage, a packed 1,500-deep crowd moving as one, and the kind of names that don’t share a city often, let alone a single night.

The party doesn’t stop when the main stage does. Two after parties keep the night rolling, hosted by two of Houston’s biggest creators:

• Chris Gone Crazy (5M+ combined following) takes over Azura Lounge
• King Drewwskyy of Wowo Boyz brings the DJ Tunez after party to Reset Rooftop

Three venues, a full night of African music, and the top DJs and influencers in the building — when this many heavy hitters are in one place, you want to say you were there. Bolanle Media captures it all across Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, but nothing beats living it in real life.

A Celebration of African Culture

AfriqueFest World Cup is more than a concert — it’s a premium cultural festival uniting East, South, West, and Central Africa under one banner. Expect a full vendor market at NOTO featuring African fashion, jewelry, beauty, art, and cuisine, plus curated lifestyle and food vendors at both after parties.

It’s culture, community, and the best of Afrobeats — all in one night.
