The 2013 African U-20 Championship was the 19th edition of the African Youth Championship. The competition was held in Algeria from March 16 to 30. The semifinalists will participate in 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup.
In March 2012, the Algerian Football Federation announced that Algiers and Oran were the two candidate cities to host the competition. In May, Algiers was initially chosen as the host city of the competition. However, in August, the Algerian Football Federation announced that Oran and Aïn Témouchent would replace Algiers as the host cities, due to the lack of available stadiums in the latter city.
The draw for the tournament was held on 9 December 2012 in Cairo, Egypt.
