About this event
Celebrate the grandeur of the Benin Kingdom at the Igue Festival, a sacred annual event held in Benin City, Edo State to renew the spiritual strength of the Oba of Benin.

During the festival, the Oba performs traditional rituals, and the city comes alive with cultural dances, royal processions, and masquerade performances. The festival also serves as a period of thanksgiving, prayers for prosperity, and honoring the ancestors.

The Igue Festival is a fascinating glimpse into the prestige and heritage of one of Nigeria’s oldest kingdoms.
