Despite Kenya not featuring in the final, the crowd is buzzing with energy.
Some fans have carried flags and even painted themselves in Morocco’s red and green.
Among the high-profile guests are FIFA President Gianni Infantino and Confederation of African Football President Patrice Motsepe, both in Nairobi to attend the match.
The closing ceremony kicks off at 5.30 pm, with performances from Tanzanian star Zuchu, Kenya’s Savara, and Ugandan artist Eddy Kenzo.
Two-time champions Morocco will then clash with Madagascar for the trophy and the ultimate $3.5 million prize.
