About this Event
AfroYanga is BACK!
Get ready for an unforgettable celebration of Queer African joy, culture, love and community as we bring AfroYanga 2026 to you.
This isn’t just another evening. It’s a space to show up, show out, connect, celebrate and be completely yourself. Come with your people or come solo. Either way, you’re part of the family.
WHAT TO EXPECT!
The AfroYanga Ballroom Extravaganza
Category is… AFROYANGA! Expect looks, attitude, energy and a ballroom moment worthy of the main stage. Come ready to cheer, serve and celebrate.
Lip Sync Battle
The mic might be off, but the PERFORMANCE will be very much ON. Who’s got the charisma, drama and stage presence to take the crown? 👑
Discussions/Workshops
Real people. Real stories. Real conversations. We’ll bring together voices from our community to explore what it means to live, love and thrive at the intersection of Black, African and queer identities.
An Exclusive Moment with a Queer Black Couple
Love deserves to be seen and celebrated. Join us for an intimate and honest moment with a queer Black couple as they share a little of their story, their love and what navigating life together looks like.
🎶 And there’s more…
Afrobeats, Performances. New connections. Beautiful people. Big energy. And a few surprises we’re keeping under wraps for now. 👀
Whether you’re Queer and African, part of the wider Black LGBTQ+ community, or an ally who genuinely celebrates and supports our community, AfroYanga is your invitation to experience something special.
Come dressed to feel GOOD. Bring your energy. Bring your people. Bring your whole self.
