Harambee Stars supporters will get an opportunity to watch the national team in action against Burundi and Ivory Coast after earlier fears that they would be left in the dark.
Kenyans will be able to watch Harambee Stars in action during their upcoming 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Burundi and Ivory Coast on TV.
National broadcaster KBC TV will beam the two matches live from the Bing National Stadium in Lilongwe, Malawi after securing the free-to-air rights for the contests.
Harambee Stars will take on Burundi on June 7 and African champions Ivory Coast four days later, with both matches played in Malawi as Kenya does not have an approved stadium.

Harambee Stars: Five reasons why switching to a back three formation makes a lot of sense for Kenya ahead of AFCON 2027
Harambee Stars coach Engin Firat has been hinting at switching to a back three formation for a while now, and here are five reasons why his thoughts make alot of sense.
The latest development is a relief to Kenyan fans after earlier fears that they would be left in the dark following a delay in making payments for the free-to-air rights despite a deal having been sealed in February.
Harambee Stars have played just one match at home since the country’s nine-month FIFA ban was lifted in November 2022, hosting South Sudan in a friendly match at Kasarani last September.
Kenyans were still able to watch all matches the national team played away through various platforms and that will still continue through KBC who also broadcasted Kenya’s two matches at the Four Nations tournament in Malawi in March.
