Macondo Literary Festival 2025

Kenya Cultural Centre
Organized by KenyaBuzz

The Macondo Literary Festival proudly returns for its fifth edition this September, under the evocative theme ‘Chronicles & Currents.’ This year’s festival casts its net wide across the Atlantic, spotlighting the literary, historical, and cultural ties between Africa, South America, and the Caribbean, regions deeply intertwined by histories of migration, resistance, and cultural resilience.

Held in Nairobi, the 2025 edition will be on 19th to 21st September 2025 at the Kenya Cultural Centre and will host a rich program of panels, masterclasses, book signings, baraza sessions, and children’s activities, offering a literary experience that is both local and global in spirit.

“Jogoo Wa Shamba Wawika Mjini” hit different. It nailed the shags-meets-city vibe installations that make you think about where you’re from vs where you are. Layers, textures, and real cultural depth. Worth the visit if you appreciate art that speaks to the Kenyan experience. Highly recommend! 🎨
