Yam Carnival line-up: Davido, Mr Eazi and more confirmed for new Clapham Common festival
A brand new music festival “celebrating African culture” will take place on Clapham Common this summer.
Yam Carnival, which is due to take over the south London spot from August 22-23, will be headlined by two of Nigeria’s biggest artists, Davido and Mr Eazi.
Tekno, Timaya and Yemi Alade are the other top-billed acts, with the likes of Afro B, Alicai Harley, Yxng Bane and Not3s also on the line-up.
The festival will be run by the organisers of Afro Nation, the Portuguese festival that draws together various cultural strands from the African diaspora.
Yam Carnival will also host a number of food trucks, serving up dishes inspired by the continent, with various masquerades across the weekend.
