Flavours Of Nigeria Festival Returns With ‘A Cultural Voyage’ In Canada

The much-anticipated Flavours of Nigeria Festival will return for its second edition on August 9, 2025, promising an even more vibrant celebration of Nigerian culture, food, music, and creativity.

In a statement issued to journalists yesterday in Abuja, Festival Curator, Mr. Chukwuebuka Anyaduba, said the festival will take place at Gage Park in Brampton, Ontario, bringing together diverse audiences for a day of immersive cultural exchange and celebration.

This year’s theme, “A Cultural Voyage,” captures the essence of the festival’s mission—to transport attendees through the sights, sounds, and tastes of Nigeria’s rich heritage. More than just an event, Flavours of Nigeria is a cultural experience aimed at showcasing the depth of Nigerian traditions while strengthening ties between Nigeria and Canada through cultural diplomacy and tourism promotion.

Organisers say senior government officials from Nigeria and Canada will attend the festival, underscoring its growing significance as a platform for bilateral cultural and economic collaboration.

Festival Highlights Include “Naija Brunch: Flavours & Royalty,” a regal culinary experience inspired by Benin Royalty, featuring fine Nigerian cuisine in an ambience of elegance and tradition.
