DanceAfrica Festival 2023
The nation’s largest festival dedicated to African diasporic dance and music returns to the stages and streets of Brooklyn for its 46th year! DanceAfrica is a vibrant annual celebration of African and African-American dance, music, and culture, featuring performances, master classes, a film series, a dance party, and the one-and-only DanceAfrica bazaar.
In 2023, we celebrate with traditional Ghanian dance and music from the National Dance Company of Ghana. Plus, the DanceAfrica Spirit Walkers return, along with the beloved RestorationArt Dance Youth Ensemble.
“DANCEAFRICA is a family reunion, a chance to see how the branches of the family tree have extended.” – The New York Times
