One of the most beautiful traditional festivals in Ivory Coast that lasts a week and ends with a great carnival band.
After a week of "mystical retreat", the talking tam-tam (Edogbolé) is taken to the public square where everyone dances on Mondays. Tuesday is the day of the kings, Wednesday that of the women, Thursday that of the executives and Friday that of the village chiefs. On Saturday during the Ewoudolé, everyone dances again while the seven families n'zima pledge allegiance to the king. Everyone parades, dressed in disguise and make-up. On Sunday, the ceremony of farewell to the genius of Abissa and the purification rite of the king takes place by the sea. Great carnival fanfare
