Get ready to move. Yankari Afrobeat Collective bring a powerful, high-energy live show that fuses deep Afrobeat grooves with blazing horns, driving rhythms, and an unstoppable sense of joy. Rooted in Nigerian musical traditions and inspired by the legacy of Afrobeat pioneers, their sound is bold, rhythmic, and impossible to stand still to.
More than just a gig, this is a full-body experience, tight, interlocking rhythms, soaring melodies, and a call to dance, connect, and celebrate together. Fresh from standout performances across Ireland’s top festivals and stages, Yankari are guaranteed to light up the Big Top.
Come for the music, stay for the groove.
