Every year, ODUNDE draws vendors from not only America but from Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, and Guinea. The ODUNDE Festival is like a large family reunion or street fair for lots of people. Vendors have set up their stands and the aromas of African, Caribbean and soul foods fill the air.

Over 300 vendors from the African Diaspora join us each year to celebrate the tradition in preserving African and African-American culture. Their display of authentic African fabrics, jewelry, and music will leave you in awe. Philadelphia city blocks are a vibrant marketplace filled with vendors selling many kinds of crafts, goods and food.

The ODUNDE African-American festival will take place at 23rd and South Street and Grays Ferry Avenue on Sunday, June 13th, 2010. Vending and exhibition space for the festival is available on a first-come first-served basis, so the best way to assure prime space is to get your fee in early.
