Join us for Fet Gede Leeds on 2nd November 2024, an extraordinary masquerade inviting people from all backgrounds to express themselves in a safe, vibrant space. 

Dress in elaborate purple or black Victorian-style outfits, don an ornate mask, and embrace the spirit of this unique celebration. 

Fet Gede, or the "Festival of the Ancestors," is a significant cultural event in the Haitian Vodou tradition, honouring the lives of ancestors and the cycle of life and death. 

After an electrifying 2023 event in London, we’re bringing this rich cultural experience to Leeds—featuring a dramatic fashion show by Darius Mackenzie, powerful drumming by Ted Beaubrun, and captivating talks on the importance of drumming as a language in Haitian culture. Don't miss this immersive experience of art, music, and heritage!
