The annual Eritrean festival is going to take place this year for its 23rd time at the „FRANKFURT UNIVERSITY, BOCKENHEIMER WARTE” in the period between the 8th and 10th of August. The organizer of the event is the “Eritrean Democratic Association”, in Germany.
Among the participants are Eritrean political organizations and civic resistance movements in the diasporas. The Eritrean Liberation Front – Revolutionary Council (ELF-RC) and the Eritrean Democratic Party (EDP) have already announced their participations. It is expected that the participants of the festival will be briefed on a merger by the two above-mentioned organizations and the concerned delegation would explain their guidelines and objectives. In addition, we will be introduced to a new political party by then, one which by and large is quasi a successor of the ELF-RC. The ELF-RC in collaboration with other organizations and individuals of similar viewpoints and interests has sought since 2006 to form a party of wider socio-political scope. The process of party formation is still going on and is being expected to conclude its founding congress short before our 23rd Festival.
In addition, an umbrella organization of the Eritrean opposition organizations, namely the “Eritrean Democratic Alliance” EDA, shall also participate and address the Festival audience. Well-known politician from the German political parties and society will be as well present.

As always, known personalities from music and folklore will present to the festival visitors their artistic pieces showing Eritrea’s lively cultural wealth and joy. A variety of delicious dishes shall obviously be in their abundances.
Welcome to our 23rd Festival in Germany!
