This is an annual event, taking place in the City of London to celebrate the new Lord Mayor taking on the role. This is the first time the Afro-Caribbean community is involved in this longstanding tradition bursting with pomp and ceremony.
Our heritage together with our partners EEALondon & Enterprises Nigeria are thrilled to be a part of the mile-long parade. The show features attractions such as Nigerian Masquerades, African costumes with fashion and Afrobeats. It will be televised live on BBC1.
