Stroll leisurely through the market stalls and support African-owned businesses as they showcase their products. Avoid holiday stress and shop early for your Christmas gifts this year! Take part in one of the many workshops and experience the rich culture of the beautiful African continent. Discover Africa through an Ethiopian coffee ceremony, the Tuareg culture, and much more. Let the kids have fun in the children’s corner with face painting, crafts, and bead workshops. Bring your dancing shoes for the disco with a live DJ, where you can move to the rhythm of African vibes. It promises to be a fun day out for the whole family.

At the Africa Cultural Promotion Centre (ACPC), the cultural identity and values of African people are celebrated and promoted. ACPC aims to create a vibrant African community — a home away from home, where people of African descent living in the Netherlands can connect. ACPC achieves this through a variety of culturally oriented products and services offered in a safe and welcoming space where everyone can thrive. With a deep passion for African culture, ACPC works to bring it closer to you — because living far from home should never mean leaving your culture behind.
