Anoumabo Urban Music Festival
The Anoumabo Urban Music Festival or Festival des musiques urbaines d'Anoumabo (FEMUA) is an Afropop music festival that was created in 2008. It is held mainly in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. It brings together important contemporary artists from Africa and around the world for a week, usually in Anoumabo in the south of Abidjan. It is one of the largest music festivals in Africa, with more than 40,000 spectators in 2017. Admission to the concerts is free and some artists donate their royalties to a local development project. An annex of the festival, Femua Kids, is intended for children.
