Flying off on a vacation to Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara during the months of September and October may be the ideal time to witness one of the annual celebrations of the Ba-lla people of Zambia. Therefore, the Shimunenga Ceremony of the locals in Namwala will be the cherry on top of the icing for tourists who arrive during this season to spend a holiday at a Livingstone hotel in Victoria Falls. Usually celebrated during the full moon weekend of September or October, this ceremony begins with a gathering by the Shrine of Shimunenga, the great warrior.
The festive event highlights the country’s traditions as the women and children march, dressed in Zambian attire. The Shimunenga Ceremony is no short of entertainment with its traditional dances and music, paired with a line up of rituals performed within a period of two days.
