Celebrate Amazigh New Year in Boston 2025 with music, dance, and amazing experience!
About this Event

The Amazigh New Year celebration in Boston, scheduled for January 11, 2025, will mark the traditional Amazigh holiday known as Yennayer, celebrating the Amazigh people's New Year, which typically falls around January 12th. This event has been observed for centuries, marking the start of the agricultural calendar.

In Boston, the celebration has been organized since the late 2000s and features Amazigh cultural expressions such as music, dance, and traditional cuisine, along with presentations about Amazigh history and traditions. These highlight the significance of Yennayer and the Amazigh people’s contributions to North African heritage. The event often brings together the Amazigh people in diaspora and others interested in this ancient North African culture, fostering a sense of community and pride.

The event also provides an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the Amazigh language (Tamazight), its script, Tifinagh, and ongoing efforts to preserve and promote it. The celebration is expected to be both a festive and educational experience for all ages.
