Raila Odinga International Stadium, also Talanta Stadium, is a sports stadium under construction in the city of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. It is intended to be used during the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations football tournament. The stadium is one of the stadia that Kenya plans to use during the tournament, that will be jointly hosted by Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya. On 12 December 2025, during the 62nd Jamhuri Day celebrations, President William Ruto promised that the government would approve the renaming of Talanta Stadium to Raila Odinga International Stadium as a commemorative gesture; however, the renaming requires several steps and will take effect upon the stadium's completion.
