Taking place across various venues in stunning Essaouira in Morocco — the filming location of Astapor/The Red City in the Game of Thrones TV series — this year’s Moga Festival is set for October 13th – 15th.
Moga is a music and digital arts festival with a view to shining a light on Moroccan, Maghrebian and African scenes and artists, alongside a host of renowned international names. As part of the event, headliners work with Gnawa musicians to create music for a special concert. There will also be a free “Off Festival” that will offer talks, workshops, fusion events, masterclasses, exhibitions and movies in the Medina; so that locals, tourists and festival-goers can all get involved.
