Gnawa and World Music Festival of Essaouira
The Gnawa and World Music Festival of Essaouira is one of the most emblematic cultural events in Morocco. Every year in June, the blue city vibrates to the rhythm of Gnawa percussion, blending centuries-old traditions with contemporary music.

Founded in 1998, this unique festival attracts artists from around the world and thousands of visitors. For four days, the medina, the beach and public squares transform into open-air stages where Gnawa chants, jazz, blues, reggae and electronic music resonate.

The maÔlems (Gnawa master musicians) perform alongside international artists creating unforgettable fusions. Dont miss the night concerts on Moulay Hassan beach, a magical experience under the stars.

The festival also contributes to the preservation and promotion of Gnawa cultural heritage, inscribed on UNESCOs Intangible Cultural Heritage list.
