KwanzaaFest 2007

Now in its 16th year, the free event celebrates the unique African American holiday of Kwanzaa by reaffirming its principles reflecting family, community and cultural values. Kwanzaa, observed from December 25th to January 1st of each year, was created in 1966 to honor African American heritage and means “first fruits” in Swahili.

The biggest KwanzaaFest draw is unbeatable entertainment. Major urban radio stations compete for the right to sponsor performers. Past artists have included the likes of Usher, Alicia Keys, Mario and Ludacris. This year’s lucky station is K104 and the lineup will be announced soon.
