The story

Amazing Festival - VicFalls Afro-Latin Experience in Livingstone

The Amazing Festival is a real dance event held in Zambia, confirmed by regional press coverage of international dancers, including a Zimbabwean representative, participating in its 2024 edition. Branded as a VicFalls Afro-Latin Experience, it is understood to be an Afro-Latin partner-dance gathering held in or near Livingstone.

The Amazing Festival stands out among Zambia's lesser-documented modern events for having independent, verifiable confirmation in regional press: in August 2024, Zimbabwe's state-linked Herald newspaper reported that dancer Fredrick Rico King would represent Zimbabwe at the Amazing Festival in Zambia, a detail that confirms both the event's existence and its regional, competitive character, drawing performers from beyond Zambia's own borders.
