If you only have one day, this is the best way to immerse yourself in Afro-Luso culture and experience the festival!
Attend a variety of dance workshops including Kizomba, Semba, Afro and Afrobeats. Workshops are delivered at different levels but don’t be shy, give it a go! Teachers are friendly and patient and want you to have the best experience possible.
Browse the Afro Marketplace at your own pace for exclusive fashion, self-care stalls and more. Get your braids done, pick up some beautiful new clothes and meet the talented artists and makers.
