Zily performs at Majunga Vibes festival in Mahajanga

The Majunga Vibes festival in Mahajanga, Madagascar, recently highlighted the cultural connections of the Indian Ocean through a diverse lineup of artists from Madagascar, Mayotte, and the Comoros. A central figure of the event was the singer Zily, who celebrated her dual Malagasy and Mahoran heritage through a series of performances.

Zily’s return to the city included sold-out concerts and community engagement, such as visiting local workshops like Soa Tigra. The festival, coordinated by Hamada Noussoura Adifane of N10humanitaire, aimed to promote regional fraternity and local development. The event served as a platform for musical exchange between the islands, despite differing political statuses and languages.
