ACF CultureFest is a groundbreaking cultural and economic festival series championed by the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) in partnership with TruNorth, with endorsements from key Northern state governments as well as the Federal Ministry of Arts, Culture, Tourism and the Creative Economy.

​

ACF CultureFest is designed to celebrate the rich heritage, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit of Northern Nigeria through a dynamic blend of events including food fairs, music concerts, fashion showcases, heritage exhibitions, and desert races.

​

Spread across key states such as Kano, Yobe, Kaduna, Plateau, Bauchi (Yankari), Niger, and Abuja, the festival aims to attract tourism, drive investment, create jobs, and stimulate local enterprise. More than just a cultural celebration, ACF CultureFest serves as a strategic tool for economic empowerment, regional rebranding, and youth engagement across the 19 Northern states and the FCT.
