About This Festival

A Day of Culture, Unity, and Renewal

EPA Festival 2025 in Isan-Ekiti is a reminder that culture refreshes the mind and reconnects us to our roots. In the rhythms of the drums and the joy of the dance, everyday worries—fear, anxiety, resentment, unmet desires—stand aside for a moment, making room for gratitude, harmony, and community.

Culture, Not Idolatry

It is important to distinguish culture and tradition from idolatry. Many elements of our heritage have been neglected over time, partly because these lines were not clearly drawn in the past. Revisiting our traditions—responsibly and with understanding—helps us preserve identity, strengthen values, and pass wisdom to the next generation.

Call to Reconnection

Know your culture; know your roots. This EPA Festival offered more than celebration—it offered perspective and a chance to reunite with one another, to heal, and to recommit to the common good of Isan-Ekiti.
