According to the organizers, the best West-African and African artist and the best video clip at Kora Awards 1996 with his title, Jammu Africa, promised to make the Sports center explode.

It is the first time that the opening ceremony is relocated from the Stade d’Août to take place in the Sports center of Ouagadougou.

With its 5000 seats, there is a risk for the Sports center to refuse spectators but big screens will be placed all around in order to allow everybody to take part in the show.
