The Amazigh New Year, also known as Yennayer, is a joyous and important holiday for the Amazigh people of North Africa. The Amazigh are an indigenous group with a long and rich history that dates back to ancient times. The Amazigh homeland, called Tamazgha, extends across North Africa, from Morocco to Egypt and as far south as the lower limits of the Sahara in Niger and Mali.

This annual celebration features live music, traditional tea along with pastries, henna tattooing as well as many other activities for kids and everyone in the family.
