THE NILE FESTIVAL
The Nile Festival is an event which started in 2006. Its birth was conceived in a café in Port Said.
The aim of the festival is to highlight inspiring music from all the nile countries and to accent topics
such as ecological and environmental-related issues. The first Nile Festival was staged in April 2006
at the Hammersmith Palais in London and featured El Tanbura from Port Said, Egypt, and Mahmoud
Ahmed from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Radio 3 broadcast a one-hour live programme and the show had received rave reviews in the English press.-
