    If there’s one thing Nigerians love to do, it’s turn up. Everyone that has attended festivals, or plans to do so, should know that you need to be prepared to meet these people:

    The screamer 

    When you see this person, please help us ask them where they get all that energy from. Na fight?

    The content creator

    They’ll somehow get 370 pictures, four TikToks and 5,225 Instagram Story posts from a three-hour show. 

    The dancer

    Nobody:

    Them, every glorious second:

    The lowkey musician 

    If you don’t lipsync for your life at a festival, are you even doing it right?

    The ready-to-mingle

    Festivals might as well be called singles’ conventions. The agenda must agend.

    The lovers

    There you are, trying to whine your waist to Tems in peace, and these ones are just holding hands. Mtcheew.

    The fashion-killers

    These ones are just here to bring all the looks. Those that get it, get it. 

    The ones that just want to have a good time

    Because that’s the whole point of attending festivals.

    Enjoy a good time at the Culture Festival 2022, organised by the Art of Living Foundation, happening on Sunday, 21st August 2022.

    Themed “Vibrant Africa: The Rising Rhythm”, the Culture Festival offers an evening of music, dance, meditation and dialogue. Register for free to attend.
