BloomFest Experience will hold its second edition in Kaduna State from December 17 to 19, 2026, combining heritage celebrations and music with exhibitions, tourism discussions and business mentoring, organisers said.
The three-day event is scheduled to take place at Fifth Chukker Resort under the theme “Roots and Heritage: The Rise of a New Dawn.”
The programme includes a heritage night, a music and experience night, cultural presentations and a dialogue on tourism storytelling. Seminars, product exhibitions, business networking, mentoring sessions and fireside chats are also planned.
Organisers said the event would bring together creatives, entrepreneurs, tourism industry representatives, cultural enthusiasts and government officials. They said it aims to provide a platform for cultural exchange while helping small businesses and creative professionals showcase their work and build commercial connections.
The Kaduna edition follows the inaugural event at Green House Resort in Abuja in 2025.
Speaking at that event, founder and organiser Blessing Omofoma said BloomFest aimed to support domestic tourism, economic diversification and job creation through culture and lifestyle activities.
“At the grassroots level, it seeks to amplify local heritage, empower small businesses and creatives, and promote sustainable tourism practices that directly impact host communities,” she said.
Organizers said the 2026 edition has the support of the Federal Ministry of Art, Culture, Tourism and the Creative Economy, the Nigerian Tourism Development Authority (NTDA) and the National Orientation Agency (NOA).
