AfroWave Festival is returning to Douala for its second edition, bringing together African music, culture and entertainment for six days. Under the slogan Join the Wave, the festival aims to create a platform where established and emerging African talents can connect with audiences through live performances and cultural activities.
The 2026 edition has already announced several performers, including Cameroonian singer Cysoul, Tazeboy from Côte d’Ivoire and La Melo Du Quartier. More performers are expected to feature as the organisers continue to unveil the programme.
Beyond the concerts, AfroWave will feature cultural encounters, entertainment activities and the Miss AfroWave competition. The combination of music, community engagement and cultural showcases is intended to make the festival more than just a series of live performances.
The festival also offers commercial opportunities for businesses and brands interested in reaching young African audiences. Its previous edition reportedly attracted more than 1,500 festivalgoers per day and over 90 exhibitors, making the second edition an interesting development for Douala’s growing entertainment scene.
