Drawing inspiration from vintage postcards, the artwork evokes the joy of sunny beaches and carefree days, perfectly encapsulating the vibrant spirit of Seychelles and the excitement of this historic tournament.
The official poster unveiling came in a media release from Emy Casaletti-Bwalya, the Marketing and Communications Director for the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup 2025 and captures the essence of what makes this event so special, its artistic, cultural and global event significance. Taking place from 1 to 11 May 2025 in Victoria on the island of Mahé, this landmark tournament will be the first FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup hosted on African soil.
A Design Rooted in Culture and Sport

At its center is a young Seychellois boy juggling a football on a pristine beach, symbolising the dreams of aspiring athletes hoping to one day compete on the world stage. The background, rich with the nation’s iconic pink granite rocks, palm trees, and turquoise waters, highlights Seychelles’ natural beauty while setting the tone for the tournament. Full of colour and warmth, the design reflects the island’s vibrant music culture and the lively, uplifting atmosphere of beach soccer.
