There is still time to start planning your trip for December (if you haven’t already) so that you don’t miss out on the activities. This year’s celebration will take place during the entire month of December. That’s some festival!
This is one of the most popular cultural festivities around. With its many extra special celebrations, it is held every year. African heritage and culture are celebrated through talented individuals demonstrating cultural creativity, drama, dress, and music.
This is presumably Africa’s biggest carnival. The cultural heritage of the people is demonstrated in all of the costumes, activities, and culinary dishes. This one-of-a-kind carnival is also participated in by the traditional ruler, “Obong”, and their cabinet.
