The partnership between the resort and the African music awards platform is expected to provide an international platform for promoting Nigeria’s tourism, cultural heritage and hospitality offerings.
The festival, themed “A Day in Africa,” will celebrate African music, cuisine, culture, tourism and entertainment, bringing together artists, DJs, creators, vendors and music enthusiasts from across the continent and beyond.
