From July 10–12, 2026, the city of Brampton will once again come alive with the energy, colours, sounds, and spirit of Africa as African Pavilion returns as part of the iconic Carabram Multicultural Festival.

Now celebrating alongside Carabram’s remarkable 44-year multicultural legacy, African Pavilion has grown into one of Canada’s most recognized platforms for African culture, business, tourism, entertainment, and diaspora engagement.

About African Pavilion

Organized by  Yes Youth and Women Can (YYWC) in collaboration with  Afro Diaspora Pulse, African Pavilion 2026 is expected to welcome more than 3,000 attendees across three days, including families, youth, entrepreneurs, professionals, newcomers, creatives, tourists, and international delegates visiting during the FIFA World Cup 2026 season.

But African Pavilion is more than a festival.

Officially endorsed by the City of Brampton, and in strategic partnership with African Union and Pan-African Tourism Board, it is a cultural and economic platform designed to connect communities, amplify African excellence, and create meaningful opportunities for businesses, organizations, creators, and multicultural audiences across Canada and beyond.
