About this Event

🌴🔥 FOLKTALES PRESENTS — AFRO-LATIN FIESTA: SAHRAOUI SUMMER EPIC 🔥🌴
📅 FRIDAY 1 MAY | 🕗 7:30 PM–2:30 AM | 📍 Jamboree, Kings Cross
🎉 A RETURN TO HEAT. A DESCENT INTO ROOTS.
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

💫 The fire starts to flicker once more...

Afro-Latin Fiesta returns— not just with the heat you know and love, but with something deeper stirring beneath it.
This time, we trace the rhythm back to its source.
To the desert.
To the drum.
To the places where music is not performed… but lived.

This is where Sahraoui spirit meets Afro-diasporic pulse and Latin rebellion.
Where sweat is ritual.
Where movement is memory.

You don’t just dance at this one— you transcend.

🔥 HEADLINER: ARFOUD BROTHERS & SISTERS 🏜
An electrifying 10-piece collective born from the Sahara desert of Morocco.
Founded by Abdelillah Ouahbi, their sound carries the warmth, soul, and vastness of Arfoud itself—raw, hypnotic, and alive. Rooted in Arabic and Amazigh traditions, their music flows effortlessly through Afrobeat, Afro-Jazz, and Afro-Brazilian rhythms—
a sonic landscape where cultures don’t collide… they merge. High energy. Deep groove.
A dancefloor lifted into pure, ecstatic release.

🌍 SPECIAL SUPPORT: FOLI DOUMAN 🥁
A powerful West African drumming and dance ensemble channeling ancestral rhythms from Guinea, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, and Mali. This is no ordinary performance—
this is living tradition with thunderous percussion Dun .
Bodies speaking what words cannot.

A celebration of lineage, unity, and the unbroken thread of African diasporic culture.

🌶️ OPENING CEREMONY: CHICO MAJARA 💥
Elegant. Raw. Swagger dripping with danger.
Chico Majara blur the lines between tropical joy and punk intensity—
fusing Latin Boogaloo, Salsa grooves, and untamed guitar energy into something wild and irresistible. Percussionists lock you in. The rhythm section pulls you under. Guitars and vocals strike like lightning. This is feel-good music with teeth. A cathartic, sweat-soaked ignition to the night.

🎧 AFTER HOURS: DJ (TBA) 🔊

When the live energy peaks, the night doesn’t end—
it transforms.

Expect Afro, Latin, and global rhythms woven into a relentless flow
keeping bodies moving deep into the early hours.

Come lets have a good time.

🪩 WHY THIS NIGHT MATTERS

Because some rhythms don’t come from speakers—
they come from history.
Because the dancefloor can still be sacred.
Because somewhere between the Sahara and the city,
between drum and bassline,
you remember something you didn’t know you forgot.

The tribe returns.
The circle widens.

Old friends and new blood— moving as one.
