Ake Festival is- a five-day programme of cultural, artistic and literary events that include readings, master classes, schools visits, stage plays, film screenings, musical presentations, fashion shows, workshops, performances and talks delivered by both Nigerian and international authors, thinkers, poets, filmmakers, actors, artists and academics.
