Africa Oye back for 2024
Africa Oyé, the UK’s largest free celebration of African music and culture, takes place annually in Liverpool. This year it will be held once again at Sefton Park on the 22nd & 23rdJune. Beginning in 1992 as a series of small gigs in the city centre, the event has gone from strength to strength, moving to its present Sefton Park home in 2002 to cope with demand.
The festival is a truly international event that harnesses the spirit of multiculturalism and tolerance.
But Africa Oyé is about more than music… Over 90 stalls selling the best food, drink, arts and crafts and fashion from Africa and beyond will again be present at the Oyé village along with long time supporter ‘News From Nowhere’, one of the UK’s premier stockists of African music, with all the performing artists and much more on sale, it’s a great opportunity to not only take in some of the best roots music around, but take some home with you too.
