TLDR

  • I may have been miles away, but the festival still gave me something to write about.
  • From the gates of Fumba, the second edition of the FuTopia Festival Zanzibar opened with a colourful parade that turned the streets into a moving stage.
  • It was an opening that felt less like a formal ceremony and more like a festival announcing itself to the islands, loudly, colourfully and without holding back.
  • The Open Mic is one of several elements of the festival programme, giving emerging performers a chance to take the stage and showcase their talents.
  • Busara Promotions Managing Director Lorenz Herrmann said the festival had officially opened and was designed to give audiences different ways to experience music, creativity and performance.
