Next Article
17th & 18th June, 2023 Sefton Park, Liverpool
FREE ENTRY - NO TICKETS REQUIRED
Following an incredible 30th anniversary year in 2022, one of Merseyside’s most picturesque green spaces will once again be filled with the music and culture of Africa, the Caribbean and the Diaspora, for two free days of live music, workshops, DJ stages, food stalls and a range of traders in the Oyé Village.
The Saturday of the two-day free festival will see dancehall and reggae artist, Tanya Stephens close proceedings, whilst the Sunday will be headlined by Seun Kuti - son of the legendary afrobeat star, Fela Kuti - with his band, Egypt 80.
The festival’s commitment to being ‘free and open to all’ also means that the Access Tent, British
Sign Language on-stage translators and Access Viewing Platform will also all return for this year’s extravaganza.
