Guests will be welcomed with a red carpet reception before immersing in an evening of Yoruba-inspired music, dance, storytelling, and fashion. The lineup will feature energetic percussion ensembles, ceremonial displays, and contemporary reinterpretations of Yoruba heritage designed to appeal to both young and older audiences.
