Morocco Wi-Fi infrastructure is prepared for AFCON 2025, with top hotels offering high-speed connectivity to support tourism.
Morocco Wi-Fi infrastructure is set to meet the demands of the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025 and an expected surge in global tourism.
According to a recent report by Ookla, the country’s fixed broadband and hotel Wi-Fi networks are well-equipped to handle increased usage during these events.
According to the report the fixed broadband industry in Morocco has expanded considerably due to extensive fibre optic networks.
In September 2024 fixed wired broadband connections exceeded 2.6 million compared to the 2019 numbers of 1.6 million.
In terms of performance, Rabat and Casablanca lead with median broadband speeds of 36.55 Mbps and 35.57 Mbps, respectively.
The View, Hotel Riu Palace Tikida, and La Mamounia provide luxury hotel guests in Agadir and Marrakesh with excellent Wi-Fi speed that reaches 72.27 Mbps and 55.72 Mbps and 54.64 Mbps respectively.
Several luxury hotels located in Casablanca and Rabat struggle to provide excellent Wi-Fi even though they receive their connection through fibre networks.
The combination of outdated access points and incorrect access point configurations seems to be responsible for these issues.
The strategic positioning of equipment and system updates would create better guest experiences through better network flow while upgrading connectivity quality.
The Moroccan government is implementing ‘Maroc Digital 2030’ as a plan to strengthen its digital infrastructure across the country.
The $1 billion budgeted funds will deliver fibre service to 4.4 million homes by 2025 and a total of 5.6 million homes and 6,300 government institutions by 2030.
Upcoming AFCON 2025 event and the 2030 FIFA World Cup co-hosting require these enhancements of fixed broadband and Wi-Fi infrastructure to deliver premier network quality for athletes and visitors.
