About Sudan Day:

Sudan has a very beautiful, rich, diverse and inspiring music and culture. Sudan Day is a day all people in Sweden with Sudan in their hearts to meet, learn about Sudans culture, listen to great Sudanese music performance and dance to the great Sudanese rhythms. We have great artists that will be performing live. You can read about them bellow in the artists section (which will be updated as new artists join).

Sudan Day is a charity music and culture event organised by several non-profit and non-governmental organisations that have a relationship with the Sudanese people and some that have charity work in Sudan. We have united our efforts and contributions to together make Sudan Day a great day for all. Without this we would never have been possible to make Sudan Day. You can read about these organisations in the Organisations section (Also this section will be updated as new organisations join as co-organisers).

All earnings from the event will go to support the organising associations community beneficial work and charity projects. You can get to know more about each organisations work and charity projects here and in their websites/FB-pages, but you are most welcome to ask, and someone from the organisations will help answer your question.
