Brace Yourselves … D-CAF’s 7th Edition is Coming To Town This Weekend
One thing Egyptians love and are yearning for in the streets of Cairo are street festivals, but every once and a while comes in the night in shining armor, that fills the empty gap, and this particular situation, it’s D-CAF! Downtown Contemporary Arts Festival is Egypt’s first annual and international multi-disciplinary contemporary art festival and it’s set to take place this weekend … So brace yourselves people, we’re going to have some fun!
This Thursday, arts’ fanatics will get to enjoy D-CAF’s 7th edition starting Mar 8-29 at multiple venues in Downtown Cairo as Zawya, AUC’s Falaki Theatre and Gallery, Rawabet theatre, and more. The festival will include music, theatre, dance, visual arts and film from the region, locally and internationally. D-CAF keeps creating bridges between Arab artists, international curators, and programmers and is bringing back Arab Arts Focus AAF, after joining Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Celebrating the month of women, Moroccan-Egyptian Artist/Singer, Samira Said, will perform at the opening ceremony, followed by a female artists line-up: Pink Oculus, Elbi, and Shahira Welnas Elkhatira. The concert will take place at Azhar Park’s lake area.
