Zanzibar Cultural Day – A Celebration of a Rich Heritage

The Zanzibar Cultural Day falls on the 19th of July 2019 and is a celebration of the vibrant and unique culture of the exotic archipelago. It has become synonymous with grand celebrations in sub-Saharan Africa, enticing participation from Mozambique, Comoro and Kenya as well as destinations such as India, China and Germany.

The event is an amalgamation of Taarab performances, art and crafts, traditional dancing, road shows and exhibitions. Zanzibar resorts tend to showcase the essence of local cultures which are a creative, cross-cultural jumble of languages, beliefs and traditions. Exploring the region during the festival would really showcase this uniqueness and thrust any traveller into a welcome mishmash of experiences. Staying at The Residence Zanzibarby Cenizaro or similar resorts which strive to blend the modern with traditional heritage is one of the highlights travellers can look forward to when here.
