Ebibeyin (Spanish: Ebibeyín [eβiβeˈʝin] ⓘ)[1] is a town in the northeastern corner of mainland Equatorial Guinea. It is the capital of the province of Kié-Ntem.[2]

It lies very close to the Equatorial Guinea-Gabon-Cameroon tripoint. It is the end point of three main transport routes coming from Bata, Yaoundé and major cities in central Gabon. Most of the city lies outside the de-jure boundaries of Equatorial Guinea.[3]

Religion

Ebibeyin Cathedral is the episcopal see of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Ebibeyin.

Sports

Ebibeyin was a host city of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations,[4] for which the Estadio de Ebibeyin was built.

The Estadio serves as the home pitch for Akonangui FC, a multi-Equatoguinean Primera División and Equatoguinean Cup winner.
