What a day in Harlem: where joy met love for music and community



We are still catching our breath and catching up on some sleep after the Harlem MEET Africa festival, which was a massive display of what happens when people come together around the power of music. We can share and bring a positive vibe that will resonate for months to come. We want to thank all the volunteers and the core team; most of all, we want to thank YOU for supporting our mission.

Our goal is to bring people together in the most musical epicenter in the world—Harlem.

We had 10 superb acts from across the globe and our neighborhood. The festival featured young performers, two DJs, local artists, and international acts, all vibing and giving it their all. We can’t wait to bring you Harlem MEET Africa 3 next year—it's going to be another funky African party! The weather held and shone brightly, blessing us throughout the event. Thank you Banning fron Afropop worlwide for the great photos and Manonce.


Here's the full line-up for the day.
