Afronation, now one of Africa’s most celebrated music festivals, originally started as a case study in school.
The festival’s founder, King Smade, revealed this during an interview with Ekow Koomson on The Chat, sharing insights into the humble beginnings of the event that has grown to attract thousands of music lovers across the continent.
“The idea behind Afronation was first developed as part of a school project,” King Smade explained.
“We never imagined it would evolve into what it is today a platform showcasing Africa’s rich musical talent to the world.”
From its modest academic roots, Afronation has become a significant cultural and economic force, drawing international artistes, media attention, and thousands of fans annually.
The festival not only celebrates African music but also highlights the continent’s growing influence in the global entertainment industry.
