Celebrating Geechee Gullah, Bahamian, and Creole Culture
We are anticipating welcoming 15,000+ attendees over the course of the event weekend, including locals, tourists, and cultural enthusiasts from across the Southeast and the Caribbean diaspora.
The festival will celebrate the deep-rooted cultural connections between the Geechee Gullah, Bahamian, and Creole communities. These cultures share a rich lineage through American Indigenous and African ancestry, resilience, and storytelling-manifested in food, music, dance, oral traditions, and coastal lifestyles. The goal is to educate, celebrate, and unite while preserving and promoting these interconnected heritages.
The GBC FESTIVAL is not only a cultural celebration, but a movement to preserve, connect, and elevate the voices and traditions of coastal African diasporic communities. With strong community partnerships, cultural stakeholders, and extensive outreach, this event will be a landmark celebration of unity and heritage.
