Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
At the PANAF Summit 2026, artists, activists, policymakers, funders, and cultural leaders from across the continent will come together in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to explore how creativity thrives—and transforms—within today’s shifting digital and economic realities.
Building on the conversations from Zanzibar 2025, the summit will delve into the intersections of power, pressure, and possibility, highlighting how African artists continue to claim space, push boundaries, and imagine new futures.
From 6–8 February 2026, PANAF Summit will once again affirm one message: that to be free to create is to be free to define the future.
