Atlanta Jollof Music & Food Festival is presenting the award winning Atlanta African Caribbean Festival. This will be happening on September 30, 2023, and October 1, 2023, from 11 am to 10 pm, in beautiful, downtown Piedmont Park.

This one of a kind festival will celebrate the best of African and Caribbean countries through music, food, live entertainment and the arts.

  • Afrobeats vs Reggae
  • Amapiano vs Soca/Calypso
  • Jollof rice vs rice and peas
  • African dancers vs Caribbean dancers

Get ready for a culture experience like no other!

The festival will bring together cultures from West Africa, the Caribbean and the Americas, each with its own unique vibes. Enjoy African and Caribbean music, dance, fashion and amazing food. This is food from the different countries that you cannot find anywhere else in Atlanta.

And they will try to answer the age old question – what country makes the best Jollof rice?

Jollof rice is a classic Nigerian rice dish flavored with tomatoes, onions, peppers and lots of seasoning. It is a staple in West African cuisine. It is cooked in one pot and is absolutely delicious.

While most people believe it’s a Nigerian dish, it is also made in Ghana and there are those who would argue that the Ghana dish is the original version. It is also popular in Senegal and Gambia. The recipe varies from country to country or region to region. But Jollof rice is always started with rice and a tomato base.

And there will be a lot more food from West African countries, the Caribbean and the Americas. You’ll find meats, main dishes, sides and delicious desserts. Be sure to come hungry!

There will be live performances and DJ sets with day long music and dancing. The festival will be hosted by Michael Blackston and Majah Hype.

Bring your family, blankets, lawn chairs, and coolers.  Indulge in delicious food, enjoy great music and dance the day away. It’s so much fun that it’s a shame this happens only once a year.
