Nigeria has confirmed it will host the African Global Fashion Games in 2028, a new multi‑disciplinary competition aimed at showcasing the continent’s fashion talent.
The Games will feature seven distinct disciplines that cover design, craftsmanship, textile performance and innovation, providing a comprehensive platform for creators across Africa.
The Confederation of African Fashion says the event will help strengthen the industry by establishing common standards, encouraging local manufacturing and attracting investment.
As Africa’s largest economy, Nigeria has long been a key player in the region’s fashion scene, and the Games are expected to further cement its status as a hub for designers and artisans.
While details on venues and dates remain to be announced, the Games are anticipated to bring together designers, manufacturers and industry stakeholders from across the continent.
