The event marks a major highlight on the continent’s gospel music calendar, as the iconic singer includes Kenya among her select African tour stops.
Known for her powerful voice and deeply inspirational songs, CeCe Winans will perform live in Nairobi as part of her worldwide tour, which spans Europe, North America, Canada, the Caribbean, Hawaii, and Africa. The African leg of the tour features performances in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Kampala, Harare, and now, Nairobi. The tour celebrates the release of her album ‘More Than This’, which debuted on April 26, 2024, and has since received widespread praise for its heartfelt lyrics and soul-stirring melodies.
The album features standout tracks including Lord and Friend, Refiner, Be Still and Know, Sanctuary, Come Jesus Come, Holy Forever, That’s My King, Too Late to Lose Worthy, and Is He Worthy. Fans across the globe have described the album as a return to deep worship and a reflection of CeCe’s enduring mission to bring people closer to God through music.
In an Instagram statement posted on May 30, 2025, Winans expressed her excitement about the tour’s global impact:
“Come worship with me – God has been moving powerfully night after night, and I can’t wait to see what He’ll do next. These nights in His presence have been unforgettable, and now we get to keep it going!”
She also reminded fans that tickets are available via her official website, encouraging early purchases due to high demand:
“Don’t wait, tickets are going fast, so grab yours now before they’re gone at cecewinans.com!”
The Nairobi concert will follow several international stops, including Belfast, Rotterdam, West Bromwich, Port of Spain, Kingston, and various cities in Canada and the United States. It will also be one of her final African performances before she returns to the U.S. for shows in Texas, California, and Hawaii.
A Legacy of Inspiration
CeCe Winans is no stranger to breaking records and making history. With a career spanning over three decades, she remains the best-selling female gospel artist of all time, and a trailblazer whose influence extends beyond the stage. In addition to her 15 Grammy Awards, she has won 22 Dove Awards, 15 Stellar Awards, and numerous honors from institutions such as BMI, the NAACP, and Soul Train.
She has been inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, honored on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and recognized on the Nashville Music City Walk of Fame. In 2023, her hit single Goodness of God topped the Billboard Gospel Charts, amassing over 67 million streams and 450 million video views – a testament to her enduring relevance and spiritual impact.
This year, she also released a powerful new single, Come Jesus Come, featuring legendary gospel artist Pastor Shirley Caesar. The song, a reimagined version of a fan favorite from the More Than This album, has already been embraced by worship communities worldwide for its stirring message of faith and expectation.
Anticipation Builds in Kenya
With anticipation building among Kenyan fans, local gospel music communities and churches are expected to turn out in large numbers for the concert. The event promises an intimate and powerful evening of praise, worship, and reflection—offering a rare opportunity to experience one of gospel music’s most celebrated voices live on stage.
Public Advisory: Attendees are encouraged to secure tickets early and monitor official platforms for updates. Given the artist’s wide appeal and limited number of African tour dates, the Nairobi concert is expected to sell out.
Closing Note: For CeCe Winans, this tour is more than a musical journey—it’s a movement of worship and revival, and Nairobi is ready to be part of it.
