1,001 nights<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Where the world\u2019s best musicians from genres such as Gnaoua, jazz, Flamenco and reggae, Cuba, Tuareg and Tamil get together! North Africa\u2019s mega party! What makes the Gnaoua Festival so special: Whether on the beach, at the Place Moulay Hassan or the winding alleys of the Medina \u2013 the concerts, jamming sessions and parades take place at the city\u2019s most beautiful spots and are open to visitors free of charge. However, there is also a festival pass with reserved VIP places available for the most popular events. For the three days of the Gnaoua Festival, the whole of Essaouira turns into one big party that has come straight out of 1001 nights.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
A feast for all the senses<\/div><\/div>

The Gnaoua Festival enthrals audiences time and time again and has made a name for itself as a groundbreaking, authentic festival that succeeds in linking tunes and rhythms from all over the world with the enchanting sounds of Gnaoui music. It plays an active role in raising awareness for art and culture among the Moroccan public, in particular with regard to promoting the country\u2019s artistic heritage. As a symbol of heterogeneous Moroccan society, the festival provides access to the world of art and music and has enabled a dialogue between cultures that is open to a broad audience, thanks to a fusion of world music. Moroccan Gnaoua musical culture was included in the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage in 2019.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Gnaoua culture<\/div><\/div>

The Gnaoua are an ethnic minority in Morocco. Their inimitable music with its strong rhythmic element is based on lute-like instruments, barrel drums and metal castanets and used to be played predominantly as part of ritualistic celebrations. Today, it expresses the community\u2019s growing confidence and serves as a source of inspiration for musicians of all genres. For instance, Peter Gabriel has played at the Gnaoua Festivals with Gnaoua bands, and other international stars from genres such as jazz, pop, hip-hop and reggae regularly come to Essaouira to try their hand at a musical crossover.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Culture as a driver of development<\/div><\/div>

Since it was first established, the Gnaoua Festival has shown itself to be an innovative cultural event: a festival of exchange and of sharing, with a strong vision and the desire to build something new. For more than 20 years, the festival has made a contribution to cultural life both on a national and a regional level. The organisers were quick to realise that the festival is no longer just a seasonal event, but a long-term institution for local, regional and national initiatives.<\/p>\n

Young people are essential contributors in this development. To meet the socio-cultural expectations of this important group in society, the Gnaoua Festival has come up with dedicated offers to help young people find their voice. It was one of the first festivals whose stages welcomed the artists of the new Moroccan scene, thus giving them visibility, self-confidence and the opportunity to mature as artists.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Ouled Mogador Music Action<\/div><\/div>

As a result of these efforts, OMMA was born in 2015. Ouled Mogador Music Action (OMMA) is a project designed and looked after by the Gnaoua Festival. Its goal is to offer young people from the city the opportunity of training in music-related professions, helping them develop and gain visibility and know-how.<\/p>\n

The OMMA project is aware of its potential for general mobilisation and has thus decided to leverage the support from partners who are experienced in fostering the cultural development of Moroccan youth and have successfully built up infrastructures to this end: the AEC L\u2019Boulvart (Boultek), the Foundation Abdelaziz and Touria Tazi (L\u2019Uzine) and the Foundation Hiba. The partners bundle their specialisations and professional expertise and share their knowledge and experience with the goal of training young people in Essaouira in jobs to do with production and technology needed in event organisation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Ambassadors of freedom and tolerance<\/div><\/div>

Since it was first founded in 1998, the Gnaoua Festival has again and again met with enthusiasm from the broad public and established itself as a ground-breaking, authentic festival that unites tunes and rhythms from all over the world with the enchanting, haunting sound of Gnaoui music. As a symbol of heterogeneous Moroccan society, the festival provides access to the world of art and music and has enabled a dialogue between cultures that is open to a everyone, thanks to a fusion of world music.<\/p>\n

From the very start, the Gnaoua Festival has stood for a timeless community where people are free to move to the sounds of a music that carries a brotherly, universal massage and that shows the face of a Morocco that is free from all social affiliations. The event meets with an incredible echo among hundreds of thousands of visitors from all walks of life.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
