The renowned Jambo Africa Festival 2019 is set to take place in Perth on February 16, 2019, from 2 pm to 11 pm. This fascinating free festival is quite renowned in Perth and takes place almost during the same time every year.
Jambo Africa Festival is known for welcoming thousands of visitors from all over Western Australia. The festival set to take place in February 2019 will showcase more than 50 vibrant musical performances by both international and local African bands and artists. Even it will have exuberance with cultural dances, exciting fashion shows, authentic African food, stallholders and arts and craft exhibits.
Jambo Africa Festival is intended to gather multiple communities at one podium so that they can intermingle and have the opportunity to express themselves. They will also have the opportunity to share their stories with Western Australians and break down stereotypes and misconceptions. Even this is a big opportunity to develop understanding each other's communities and grow with a respect for varied religious and cultural differences across the Western Australia community, as reported by Weekend Notes.
The organisation of African Communities takes the responsibility to bring all the African community groups (of over 35) together who are currently residing in Western Australia. Those groups are being encouraged to celebrate diversity and get to know more about each other. This includes events of annual Africa Day, African Australian Week and JAMBO Africa Festival.

This renowned festival is a wonderful place for having fun with family and friends and unknown people, entertain the entertainment programs from catwalk fashion shows, cultural performances, artists in traditional costumes and iconic drumming. This will create a lasting and unique experience that supports more cultural awareness and understanding of the African culture in Australia. This year, the festival is expected to cross over 10,000 visitors, whereas the last year attracted a crowd of over 5,000 people.
