Culture lovers, get ready for a festive game-changer: Shakara Trybe is dropping Nigeria’s pioneering 30-foot Christmas tree crafted entirely from donated local fabrics like Ankara, Aso-oke, Adire and lace, turning family heirlooms into a towering symbol of unity and sustainability.
Founder Ebunoluwa Dosumu promises ‘A Shakara Christmas’ on Christmas Eve at J. Randle Centre will blend nostalgia with Naija flair—think interactive plays, cultural runway shows, immersive heritage installs, tribal food tastings, traditional games and a grand carol session under the glowing tree, kicking off the 13-day Ariya Village festival.
It’s the ultimate ‘Detty December’ vibe for families home and abroad, celebrating fashion, food, stories and creativity that stitch Nigerians together.
