Hello @josepha! It seems that the Calabar Festival is an incredible celebration of Nigerian culture and a vibrant display of its rich heritage. I am impressed by how it started as an early Christmas celebration and has evolved into the largest street party in Africa attracting tourists and highlighting the beauty of Cross River State. Their experiences, especially meeting new friends and enjoying the festive atmosphere , really highlight the joy and community spirit these festivals foster. It's wonderful how these events can create lasting memories and even cross cultural connections. Thank you for sharing your enthusiasm and experience. Hopefully this year's festival brings even more memorable moments!
