Afropolis 2025: Envisioning ‘Other Worlds’ Through Experimental Art in Lagos

Lagos’s experimental arts festival Afropolis returns for its fifth edition from 22 to 30 November 2025. This year’s theme, “Other Worlds,” calls on artists, writers, performers, musicians, filmmakers, and digital creators to reimagine reality by exploring new forms of cultural storytelling, community healing, and speculative design. The event coincides with the launch of The Afropolis journal, a new publication that will serve as a lasting platform for critical essays, poetry, photography, and visual arts emerging from the festival.
