The bright colours and irresistible beats of Africa are coming to The Bases Wynyard Quarter (behind Silo Park) on the 24th of May.
Each year, the African Communities Forum Inc (ACOFI) coordinates Africa Day. This event is aimed at bringing together Africans in Tamaki Makaurau, to showcase our diversity, share and celebrate our cultures with the wider communities.
With a packed lineup of talented artists with strong connections to Africa, dance, markets and some of Tāmaki Makaurau's tastiest food stalls, you won't want to miss this chance to immerse in all things Africa.
