The story

Festival Traditionnel Sifoka de Kampti in Kampti

Festival Traditionnel Sifoka de Kampti is a three-day cultural event at Kampti's school grounds, mixing traditional competitions and performances from communities including the Gan and Tiankoura, with Dozo hunters recently added. Built around themes of social cohesion and youth engagement across Poni province, it is a community event rather than a polished touring festival.

Dozo hunters took part in Kampti's Sifoka festival for the first time during a recent edition, joining cultural troupes from the Gan and Tiankoura communities in a program built around traditional competitions and public performances rather than a single concert stage.
