Kisima Festival Returns Beneath the Baobabs – A Portal to Healing, Rhythm, and Unity

Nairobi, Kenya – August 6, 2025 — This October, prepare to enter a portal of deep connection, cultural awakening, and sacred celebration as Kisima Festival 2025: The Unity Edition returns from Thursday, October 9th to Sunday, October 12th, at the iconic Beneath the Baobabs site in Kilifi. With programming running daily from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, this transformative four-day experience invites you to step into the well and reconnect with the wisdom of the land.

Kisima is not just a festival—it is a sacred gathering, a convergence of East Africa’s heart and spirit through music, movement, ritual, and radical self-expression. Rooted in African ancestral knowledge and rising with the pulse of a new global consciousness, Kisima 2025 offers a space to heal, dream, dance, and activate.

Set beneath the towering, ancient baobab trees of Kilifi, the festival grounds become a living altar—where earth meets sky, and where people from all walks of life come together to celebrate their belonging to land, to self, and to community. This year’s Unity Edition emphasizes collective well-being, indigenous wisdom, and the power of intentional connection through immersive art, healing workshops, conscious music, and cultural rituals.

This is the well-being festival of the future—unapologetically African, wildly alive, and deeply unifying. Whether you’re coming for the rhythm, the rituals, or the radical joy of community, Kisima 2025 promises a powerful return to the roots.
