Mozambique’s biggest cultural event officially opened Monday in Tete, drawing more than 1,200 participants from all provinces for five days of artistic performances, exhibitions and discussions.
Held every two years, the National Festival of Culture aims to showcase the country’s rich diversity while reinforcing unity and peace. This year’s edition is being held under the theme “50 Years of Consolidating National Unity and Peace Through Culture.”
President Daniel Chapo, who inaugurated the festival, said that cultural expression was critical to national development.
“Our culture is not just about dance and music,” Chapo told the crowd. “It is about building unity, shaping our identity and reinforcing peace.”
The president also stressed the importance of youth involvement in cultural life, calling it essential for safeguarding and renewing Mozambique’s heritage.
The festival includes traditional and modern music, dance, theatre, craft exhibitions, and public debates. Organisers hope the event will strengthen interprovincial dialogue and serve as a platform for artists and communities to connect.
Since its inception, the festival has been a cornerstone of the national cultural calendar. It plays a vital role in promoting inclusivity and cultural exchange, particularly important in a country where over 40 languages are spoken and where cultural differences have sometimes reflected historical divisions.
This year’s venue, Tete, lies around 1,000 km north of the capital Maputo and is hosting the event for the first time.
