Festival Tradi-Moderne is a Kinshasa cultural program announced by state press to unite African tradition with contemporary creativity, spanning an unusually long window from late November 2025 to late February 2026. The extended timeframe suggests a season of linked events across venues rather than a single festival week. Specific venues, artists and schedule details were not available beyond the initial announcement.

Festival Tradi-Moderne was announced by Congolese state press as a program built specifically to pair African tradition with contemporary creative work, spanning an unusually long window from late November 2025 into late February 2026.
