For many years, people have tried to define it. At ANGOLAN DANCES FESTIVAL, you will experience it the way it was always meant to be lived — through music, culture, connection and the dance floor. For the last 4 years, we have been building one of the most authentic Angolan cultural experiences in Europe. More than a dance festival, this is a cultural meeting point where Angolans and international dancers come together to celebrate the roots, evolution and energy of Angolan dances. This is why this edition is called GOLD. Because it feels like travelling to Angola… without leaving Europe. Portugal is home to one of the biggest Angolan communities in the world, making Lisbon the perfect place for this unique cultural exchange experience. TRIBUTE TO KIZOMBA For a long time, the word “Kizomba” has often been misunderstood or used without connection to its roots. This edition is a celebration of its culture, music, history and community. #AKIZOMBAÉAGORA Angolan & International DJs Angolan & International Teachers Renowned Musicians & Live Bands 2 Exclusive Live Shows (45min each) 8 Hours of Workshops Kizomba • Semba • Kuduro • Afro House • Traditional Angolan Dances 3 Night Parties Traditional Dance Animations Angolan Carnival Experience CARNIVAL EXPERIENCE Join our special Angolan Carnival animation at Rua 24 de Julho & Mercado da Ribeira.
