A revered symbol of the state, Egungun masquerade bear historical and contemporary significance. First, for their roles in ancient battles in the kingdom, and their ceremonial part in today’s society. They represent the resilience spirit of the people, and the enduring legacy of Oyo’s traditions.

Meantime, the unique Fuji sounds and Amala delicacy of Oyo State are further combined to provide a ‘feast of the senses’ experience for participants.

Visitors will not only be privy to performances by Egungun masquerades from all 33 local government areas of Oyo, but musical performances by the popular and local Fuji artistes, while they get to determine the best Amala cuisine in the Amala Cuisine Competition for the local restauranteurs.
Egungun Festival has something for audience of ages, and promises the fostering of a sense of community and unity.
