Get ready to groove and move to the rhythm of today's hottest DJs. This festival, which celebrates Malawi's richness, diversity, dynamism and heritage, is one of the most popular in the country. It combines music, dance, poetry, sport and crafts to the delight of thousands of people from all over the world. Revelers from the continent and abroad gather on the shores of Lake Malawi to enjoy three days of music in a relaxed environment bathed in positive vibes.

This family-friendly festival celebrates the richness and diversity of world music. Traditional music from Malawi and the rest of the world transcends borders and unites cultures in a universal intercultural dialogue. In this mosaic of sounds, we enjoy listening to folk, world music, fusion and jazz artists. Previous editions have focused on "Freedom of Expression" (2024) and "Preserving Africa" (2023). An unforgettable experience for fans of ethnic and folk music.

A refugee camp may seem an unlikely place to host a festival. That's the original idea of Congolese writer, hip-hop artist and slammer Trésor Nzengu Mpauni. Forced to flee the DRC, Trésor lived in the Dzaleka camp, home to 50,000 refugees of 15 nationalities. The Tumaini Festival promotes the social, economic and cultural inclusion of refugees through arts and culture. Gospel, reggae, theater, poetry, fashion shows, crafts, pan-African cuisine, the Dzaleka camp becomes a showcase for resilience, talent and hope.
