The Makishi masquerades are very popular in Zambia and are displayed with pride at the Likumbi Lya Mize ceremony on the last weekend of August every year.
The event takes place on both sides of the Zambezi and has vibrant market stalls where baskets, metalwork, traditional fabric, and carvings can be bought.
Masked dances and theatrical performances take place throughout the days and the meanings of the masks are shared with onlookers.
The entertainment is nonstop and various activities that visitors can witness take place over the four-day period. An event not to be missed!
