Come Celebrate, Connect, and Co-Create

The DOTB Festival Tour Global Women Edition is planned for 22–28 August 2027 across the Lagos coastal areas and Imo State, Nigeria. Curated by 3rdyearts Initiatives, this women-only cultural gathering brings together art, activism, tourism and community under the theme Colliding beyond the frame.

Art, conversation and celebration across two destinations

The proposed programme brings women artists, founders and cultural communities together for the following activities:

  • Women artist residency and exhibition, performances, theatre and film screenings.
  • A protest march, women’s carnival and community conversations.
  • Workshops, masterclasses, talks and open dialogue.
  • Business networking and opportunities to pitch creative projects.
  • Food, leisure, a beach rave and bonfire, and a closing celebration.

The daily itinerary, venues and named contributors are still to be announced.
