Afro Nations, the largest Afrobeats event in the world, will return to Portugal in June, according to the announcement of the festival’s lineup.
According to the festival organizers, the inexorable emergence of Afrobeats has significantly contributed to the expansion of the Afro Nation movement.
This year’s festival will feature global sensation Burna Boy, US hip-hop royalty 50 Cent, and French-Senegalese rap superstar Booba. The event will be held between June 28-30, following its May run in the United States.
On Thursday, tickets will go on sale with a limited pre-sale beginning at 9:00 a.m.
The festival’s organizers stated in a statement that its purpose is to unite nations through music and dance.
“Having made a name for hosting all the hottest acts and future stars, while representing sounds from every corner of the African continent, Afro Nation Portugal 2023 changes the game once more by inviting global stars from all over the world to join the movement,” said the organizers in a statement.
It is a festival of music and dance that brings together cultures from Africa, Europe, the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean.
