In Savalou, the yam festival is a traditional festival that celebrates the end of the harvest, with offerings and traditional rites.
The yam festival is a traditional festival to celebrate the end of the harvest. Originally, during the colonial era, people worshipped the deities to thank them for the abundance of the harvest. Today, after traditional offerings and rituals to the ancestors on August 14, the 15th is devoted to discussing the problems of the community and, of course, to praying to the deities and making sacrifices. It is also the occasion for the king of Savalou to give his agreement to start and taste the freshly harvested yams.
