A CELEBRATION of African culture will take place in West Yorkshire this summer, with all welcome to join in.
The first Leeds International African Festival will take place between July 8 and 15, as part of the Leeds 2023 Year of Culture.
It has been organised by coaching centre Soaring with Didi – the creation of writer and creative producer Ndidi Nkwopara.
“I am thrilled to announce this,” said Ndidi.
“2023 will be a year of culture like no other.
“In collaboration with our major partners, we are excited to bring together African communities in West Yorkshire to shout about their heritage and let their culture loose through an African arts exhibition, cooking competitions, music and dance performances.”
