This year’s Egyptian Super Cup was staged in Abu Dhabi for the fifth time between Zamalek and Al-Ahly at the Hazza bin Zayed Stadium in the United Arab of Emirates on Friday, 28th October 2022.
Although Al-Ahly emerged victors, the true stars of the match were Ghanaian Event Company, E-volution International, who organized the opening, half-time and closing ceremonies.
Described by many as unimaginably spectacular, the over 25,000 spectators at the Hazza bin Zayed Stadium were held spellbound by the sheer brilliance, timely and cutting-edge execution of the performances. The opening ceremony paraded a well-curated cultural performance interspersed with flags display and concluded with a riveting performance by Egyptian musician, Ahmed Saad, accompanied by a laser show.
Halftime saw yet another thrilling performance by the Ahmed Saad and right after the final whistle, the stage crew put together the set for what was to be an unforgettable closing ceremony. The lifting of the trophy was accompanied simultaneously by a blast of golden glitter confetti and fireworks.
Chief Executive Officer of E-volution International, Fred Darko, said the success of the event is an indication to the world that there are very capable organizations in Africa who can execute events to match up to standards anywhere in the world. He said “It was a great opportunity for us at E-volution and we are grateful to the Department of Culture and Tourism as well as the Abu Dhabi Sports Council for believing in us to handle an event of such magnitude.

And this should signal to the world that African companies are very capable of executing world class events.”
