4th Edition Moga Festival, Essaouira

The 4th Edition of the Moga Tribe Music Festival will take place at the Sofitel Essaouira Mogador Golf & Spa on October 11-13, 2019. Moga is a contemporary dance and music digital arts festival created to showcase electronic music and digital art talent from Morocco, the Maghreb region, and Africa. The festival’s focus is underground artists.

This year’s line up will feature performers within the international avant-garde music scene: Alex Niggemann, Behrouz, Bosaina, Bradley Zero, Chaim, Daox, DJ W! Ld, and Feathered Sun.

Past headliners have included Amê and dOP in performance with Gnawa musicians, Ron Morelli, DJ Tennis, Terekke, YokoO, Mind Against, Magda, Lee Burridge, SIS, and more.

Moga also offers a free “Off Festival” program that will include workshops, fusion events, a dance creation show, masterclasses, training MAO and exhibitions. Films will also be featured in the Essaouira medina. The goal is to encourage cross-cultural exchange between the locals, travelers, and concert-goers.

The Moga festival started in 2016. It is organized by Panda Events and the Moroccan Collective Sunset & Runtomorrow. Ticket Prices start at $158 USD.
