About Sema Jambo
Celebrating African Heritage
Sema Jambo, which means "Say Hello" in Swahili, is a premier cultural festival that showcases the diversity and richness of African arts and traditions. Now in its 7th year, the festival has grown to become one of East Africa's most anticipated cultural events.
In 2025, we're bringing together over 200 performers, artists, and chefs from across the continent for a 3-day immersive experience. From traditional drumming circles to contemporary African fashion shows, Sema Jambo offers something for everyone.
Our mission is to create a space where people can connect, learn, and celebrate the vibrant cultures that make Africa unique. Join us for an unforgettable experience of music, dance, art, and culinary delights.
