Dancing savanna is an experience. A bricolage of the ragged, wild and free coupled with mining dreams, stories and the arts to curate an extra ordinary art event. This event with the community is an invitation to nature lovers, art lovers and adventure lovers. Come see, eat, dance and mingle. Taking place in the heart of the savanna Taita-Taveta, this picturesque landscape unfolds like a picture from God’s own canvas. This natures reserve is the epitome of beauty and tranquility whose peace and serenity will engulf you. This is where the ultimate magic happens, and your heart gets lost to Taita -Taveta where it finds home and hearth. 2 days in July that promise you an experience like non-other.

Our aim is:

• An event that involves the community and gives them pride in their heritage, place and their landscapes.
• An event that promotes music and cultural dance which is a big identity for the region.
• An event that promotes unity, diversity in the region and gives upcoming artists an opportunity to nature talent, work, learn and network.

Venue:

Mbulia farm. This is a ranch on flat land stretching many kilometers into the rising hills. It is a rugged traditional set up with a very beautiful view of the surrounding Taita Hills. In the evening the beautiful sunset is spectacular, watch the sun disappear into the Kilimanjaro and usher in a beautiful starry night while enjoying a bone fire and a warm cup of Chai.
