October 3-5 Kicks Off Largest Three-Day Celebration of Nigerian Culture Outside the Homeland

NEW YORK, NY – Nigerians around the world are gearing up for the “largest gathering of Nigerians” in commemoration of the 59th anniversary of Nigeria’s Independence Day. The three days event will showcase Nigeria’s unique culture in New York City on October 3 – 5, 2019. Since its founding in 1991, the NYC Nigerian Independence Day celebration has become the largest observance of Nigeria’s independence outside of Nigeria. Teni, the hottest female artist in Nigeria will cap the event at the park

On October 1, 1960 Nigeria gained its independence from Great Britain. The day has since been recognized as a public holiday in Nigeria and is celebrated in Abuja and in Nigeria’s 36 states with dancing, singing and other festivities.

Now in its 28th year, the NYC Nigerian Independence Day Parade and Carnival is organized and presented by the Organization for the Advancement of Nigerians (OAN), and Nigerian Independence Day Committee, a coalition of Nigerian cultural, religious, professional, business, and civic groups committed to preserving, presenting and celebrating Nigeria’s rich history and culture. The celebration is now a mainstay, contributing to the rich and diverse culture of New York City.
