Ubuntu festival in Cape Town: Happy birthday Madiba

Hi folks. Aibo! The Ubuntu festival, celebration of a “Mandela’ day” by the Mandela Rhodes Hotel here in Cape Town, told us how “yes we are because others are”.








It was meant to “uniting people through dialogue, theatre, food, jazz, rock, pop, opera, dance, art, craft, produce, design, hospitality, sport, trade, enterprise and entrepreneurship.” A lot of people came along to taste the worldwide cuisine, to follow the rainbow rhythm and to feel the spirit of the Ubuntu togetherness.

The musical offer was jazzy with Jimmy Dludlu, Chad Saaiman, Coda, Tucan tucan, Thembi and many more others.


Just some pics:

From the streets of Cape Town to the stage, the power of Ubuntu unfolding an unexpected talent...


Can't wait for next year to come...
