In Lausanne on 5th September, the two stars, Kev Adams and Nico Capone, will face off in a charity match surrounded by many other celebrities. This is the second edition organized after the success of 2025.
“Like last year, the goal is to raise as much money as possible for our two associations,” Nico Capone tells us. The Vaudois with over 50 million subscribers across all platforms will play this time in support of the Zoé4life association, which supports children with cancer. In 2025, with the French comedian Redouane Bougheraba, Nico Capone was able to raise 100,000 francs for a good cause.

Regulars and newcomers
This time, it is not the Marseillais who co-organizes the event with Nico Capone, but the comedian Kev Adams, who will play in support of the Princesse Margot association. While they were teammates last year, they will be adversaries this time. Among the guests of this gala match, there are several familiar faces present from the first edition, such as the soccer champions Christian Karembeu or Antonio Di Natale, and the comedians Franck Dubosc and Jarry. “It’s always a pleasure to see that the stars are present for the cause,” rejoices Nico Capone.
But this year’s lineup also features newcomers, such as the most popular YouTuber in France Tibo InShape and the magician Éric Antoine. “It is an event that is meant to be family-friendly, it was important for us to have something for everyone. There are internet stars for the younger ones and actors or singers for the older ones,” explains Nico Capone. This year, several women will also be present at the event, like the YouTuber Juju Fitcats or Miss France 2022 Diane Leyre, who hosted the match during its broadcast on the RMC channel in 2025.
Also in attendance will be the comedian Paul Mirabel, the host Jean-Luc Reichmann, the actress Chantal Ladesou, and the rapper Soso Maness. “The cast is set to evolve, several names should be added. We hope to have Swiss athletes as well,” specifies Nico Capone. The goal remains the same: fill the stadium and offer a show worthy of its name. Tickets for the match will be on sale from this Sunday.
