The CD from last year's festival is now available from www.baka.co.uk
The festival aims to promote the rich cultural diversity of peoples of Southern Ethiopia, and encourage respect and appreciation for their fascinating and varied heritage. It has been growing year on year since 2003. Last year 45,000 came to enjoy the richness of talent and encourage the performers to greater heights.
