About this Event
“Dòdò” is the Yoruba word for plantain—a staple food deeply rooted in African and Caribbean cultures. Across Nigeria, Ghana, and Jamaica, plantain is more than a meal; it is a shared cultural experience.
The Dòdò Festival was created to celebrate this shared identity and bridge cultural gaps within the diaspora by creating a space where food, music, fashion, and storytelling come together.
At its core, the festival is about:
- Connection across cultures
- Celebrating heritage
- Creating a sense of belonging for diaspora communities
Our vision is to build The Dòdò Festival into one of the UK’s leading cultural festivals.
