Rift Valley Music Festival, Kenya 2010

This year the Rift Valley is coming alive with music during the first Rift Valley Festival to be held from (26th, 27th & 28th March 2010) at Fisherman's Camp on Lake Naivasha Kenya.

This three-day musical celebration will bring together local and international musicians as well as arts, crafts and culture.

Based between London in the UK and Lake Naivasha in Kenya brothers Sean and Ivan Ross are at the heart of this event. With years of experience promoting events in the UK and with deep roots in Kenya, they came up with the idea of a festival as the perfect means to celebrate on an international stage the richness of East African culture and music as well as promote the unity and beauty of Kenya, while helping local community projects.

The festival’s charitable ethos is to raise funds directly for the local community in the Lake Naivasha area.

Over 4,000 people are expected at the festival, which aims to secure a thriving future for the local communities in the Rift Valley region.

All profit from the festival will go towards a local project run by Water and Sanitation for the Urban Poor (WSUP), highlighting the importance of securing clean water and sustainable sanitation services for people within the region.
