Antigua and Barbuda will once again take center stage as it hosts the second edition of the Africa-Caribbean Dress Gala, a cultural celebration designed to highlight the deep ties between Africa and the Caribbean.

The gala, set to bring together designers, models, and cultural ambassadors, will showcase traditional and modern African and Caribbean fashion, emphasizing heritage, creativity, and cultural pride. It is expected to feature vibrant displays of clothing and accessories that celebrate shared histories and contemporary design trends.

Organizers say the event also seeks to strengthen Africa-Caribbean relations through cultural diplomacy while creating opportunities for artistic collaboration, tourism promotion, and economic partnerships.

The Africa-Caribbean Dress Gala follows the success of its first staging and is expected to attract regional and international attention as Antigua and Barbuda continues to champion cultural initiatives that link the Caribbean to Africa.
