To end the year in high spirits, on Saturday December 27, 2014 the Africa Music Awards ceremony is set to hold in the Grand Ballroom, Oriental Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos. In partnership with the African Union Commission, AFRIMA will be rewarding excellence in the continental music and media industry at the main awards ceremony. It is anticipated that more than thirty awards will be distributed at the invite-only event. The trophy recipients will be inclusive of an AFRIMA Legend Awardee and the African Entertainment/Music Journalist of the year. Groundbreaking performances can also be expected from various African artistes. “There is so much excitement in store for guests who attend both the Africa Music Summit and the AFRIMA main award ceremony. The Summit provides ample opportunity for robust and strategic deliberations on developing the African music industry to compete with the better developed industries around the globe,” stresses Delani Makhalima, AFRIMA Juror from Zimbabwe. Mr. Makhalima added, “When we are done with the vital intellectual aspect of the event calendar, all attention turns to the glamorous, star-studded, cultural concept award ceremony for a fitting finale to the last weekend in 2014. AFRIMA is eager to welcome our African music stars from within and outside the continent, officials of the African Union Commission, members of the International Committee of AFRIMA and special guests.” In commemoration of those whose lives have been effected by the Ebola virus, and terrorist insurgency in Northern Nigeria, Somalia and part of Kenya, the International Committee of AFRIMA has disclosed that part of the ceremony’s programme will pay tribute to those lives affected by both trends.
