LE FESTIVAL AWILÉ
Each year, the Awake Feast, the goddess of the lake, brings together the inhabitants of the surrounding villages on the shores of Lake Ahémé. It reduces the weight of the difficulties, suffering and grievances experienced during the year. A ceremony of reversal of roles, she is the ancestor of the South American carnival whose rhythms and dances, transmitted by slaves, continue today in Brazil, Haiti, Trinidad, etc…. Federator of village communities, it contributes to conflict resolution and strengthens the cohesion of the African social group. Festival popular and annual, we attend a carnival on voodoo parodies, at various shows and games. This is the 25 th edition to be held in 2019.
