Events in Zambia

With many cultural festivals, Zambia is a vivacious country having rich traditions and social gatherings deeply rooted in its heritage and usually accompanied by enchanting music, dances and indigenous meals.

Among the Lozi people, the Kuomboka ceremony is a distinctive event where their king is transferred from flooded grounds to higher places. Beautifully decorated canoes and rhythmic drumming are features of this event that attract tourists from all over the world. Another popular occasion is the Nc’wala Festival which is not only done in honor of first harvests but also marks beginning of every year through traditional rituals, feasting and dancing.

At Monze District towards end of June each year (or July), Lwiindi Gonde Ceremony brings Tonga culture back to life again. After praying, they begin singing followed by dancing and storytelling during this ceremony that signifies gratitude for new rains and fruits. The community congregates at Gonde which happens to be a holy place where they worship their ancestors for blessings. Therefore it becomes one such moment that unifies all tribes within one nation as people come from other parts of the country promoting oneness as well as pride in culture because it cannot be denied.
