“After two years of absence due to the pandemic, and since the current conditions still do not allow the organization of the twenty-third edition of the Gnaoua Festival, the event faithful to its singular spirit is reinventing itself once once more and becoming the Gnaoua Festival Tour». This is how the organizers of the Gnaoua Festival announced the return of this meeting in another form. A musical caravan will crisscross Morocco from June 3 to 24, 2022 to meet its loyal audience in Essaouira, Marrakech, Casablanca and Rabat. And each city has its own concerts: 12 concerts in Essaouira, 9 in Casablanca, 5 in Rabat and 5 in Marrakech.
Four stops for this musical caravan in the colors of the Festival: the purest tagnaouite and ever more daring fusions.
“This tour will be held according to the gauges that will be authorized and the public reception conditions in force. Because it is essential to maintain the link between the Festival and its public and to continue to carry a message of hope and to tirelessly consolidate the social bond”, indicates a press release from the organizers.
