Things to see and do Antananarivo & Area

Dedicated to the valorization of Malagasy contemporary art, this space was created in 2020. The gallery of 300 m² located in the locality of Ankadimbahoaka in the south of Tana contributes to the dialogue between the local and international artistic worlds, while affirming the singularity of the Malagasy culture. Hakanto Contemporary is a meeting place for artists and the public. In addition to the exhibition programs that promote works from all over Madagascar, Hakanto Contemporary offers residencies for artists. To be discovered!

The office offers guided tours of the city. Departures on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at 9:30 am and 1:30 pm, and by reservation. Circuits from 1 to 3 hours. Also offers family hikes on the second Saturday of the month, ideal to discover the 12 hills and the life of the highlands. Sportsmen also have their more intensive hike on the fourth Saturday of the month. The website has interesting information about the region.

A must on the cultural scene. A rock and alternative place, a breeding ground for local artists and offbeat personalities. It is at the same time a place of exhibition, residence and sale of contemporary art of Malagasy and foreign artists, a space of experiments and a musical scene where many groups and local artists come to perform every week. Between concerts, exhibitions and cultural events, Is'art has become the place to go. Relaxed and lively atmosphere, in a very bohemian and ecofriendly spirit.

Displays beautiful ethnographic objects from the whole island (including musical instruments) and the various finds of the University of Archeology. Short visit but helps to support students and develop research.
