Why Go to Afropunk Festival?

Afropunk is uniquely black, celebrating African culture and the empowerment of all under-represented groups. Afropunk goes easy on the Trap Music and heavy on Afrobeats, Soul, and RnB. As one of the most open environments, Afropunk is a two day festival of music, art, and culture. No festival in the lineup is like it. We mean that.
