The African Heritage Festival of Music and Dance (AHFOMAD) is a festival featuring arts, music, and cultural and contemporary dance from the African Canadian perspective. Performers originate from the local, national and international arts and culture markets of Africa and the Americas, and are all of African diaspora.
AHFOMAD is a non-profit festival organized by the African Heritage Music and Dance Society (AHMDS), an incorporated nonprofit organization in B.C.
The 2022 AFHOMAD Festival will span three days (September 2, 3, and 4, 2022), and will feature an array of international artists, appearing alongside emerging and established Canadian artists, all in celebration of the African diaspora. Workshops, pop-up markets, and opportunities for spontaneous social connection will abound! It’s all happening at the Surrey Civic Plaza.
