As every year, many African countries will be participating in the festival, presenting their culture, cuisine and handicrafts, all to the sound of music and dancing!
Country-kiosks will fill the gardens of the official residence, offering visitors a chance to acquaint themselves with the customs of each country, while handicrafts and clothing will be available for sale. Of course, the festival could not be without African music and traditional dancing.
The gardens will also accommodate tables and chairs where visitors can sit and enjoy the variety of foods bought from the local Embassies and communities.
