Routebeschrijving Website

Afrovibes Afrovbes Festival 2021 will take place from 28 Sept until 10 Oct 2021 in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Utrecht. And of course the joy of a festival.

Afrovibes programmes topical African performing arts productions and organises an annual festival in the Netherlands. Afrovibes promotes the exchange between contemporary Dutch and African artists and theatre makers as well as the interaction with audiences who take an interest in this. Afrovibes brings closer not just contemporary dance, theatre, spoken word and music from the African continent, but also the context and the discourse of these productions.

To everyone involved, we thank you for making the Afrovibes Festival a wonderful success. There are too many names to mention in one post, from the performers to the production teams to the locations, theatres and collaborators, but let's hope we make up for that by tagging you 🫶

We would like to thank also all the people who came to see the performances across 3 cities and 7 locations.

EXTRA BAHGHI PERFORMANCES
19h00 & 20h30

3 performances in one night for one price
Three makers. Three solo performances. Three completely different ways of taking the stage. This special triple bill curated by Afrovibes brings together three personal worlds in one evening: from a physical exploration of identity and diaspora, through poetry about migration, heritage and their impact, to an intimate dance solo about resilience.
An intimate, open-hearted evening, entirely in the spirit of our times.

A poetic solo about resilience, care and the quiet power of small gestures in a changing world
