The event was a huge success, a fantastic day was had by all who came.
We had saeedi music, sufi dancers, Nubian dancers (they were brilliant) Jazz Singer Michelle Rounds (crowd LOVED her, she sang Bob Marley!), a band from Karnak and a Brit rock band, 13 Daze who live in Hurghdah who finished off the night, plus many speakers including the great Godfather of Egyptology Dr Abdel Halim Noor el Din who spoke in Arabic, English, German, a few others AND Heiroglyph!! There were stalls with local crafts being made and so much more.
It was an amazing event to be part of and in talking to the tourist audience later, it was the best part of their holiday and thankfully they had no idea of the chaos going on behind scenes to get this all together!!!
Little late in starting and late in finishing but as it went on it got better and better.
