Africa Oye 2015 in Liverpool dates set for 20th and 21st June
Africa Oyé returns to Liverpool in 2015, following record audiences last summer. The finest artists from across Africa, the Caribbean and the wider diaspora will be joined by the usual eclectic 'Oyé Village' featuring an array of traders, workshops and kids entertainment to keep Sefton Park buzzing throughout the festival weekend.
Artistic Director, Paul Duhaney is excited at the challenge of following 2014's record-breaking event. “Last year was a really special Oyé, there's no doubt about that. I'm really looking forward to revealing our line-up for 2015 and proving that we can follow it with another spectacular festival”.
Africa Oyé 2015 will take place in Liverpool's Sefton Park on Saturday 20th and 21st of June. Entrance, as always, will be FREE and more details will be revealed soon.

Africa Oyé, the UK's largest free celebration of African music and culture, takes place annually in Liverpool. Beginning in 1992 as a series of small gigs in the city centre, the event has gone from strength to strength, moving to its present Sefton Park home in 2002 to cope with demand. Oyé attracts artists from right across Africa as well as South America and the Caribbean.
