From 15 to 18 July next, the economic capital of the Kingdom will host the sixth annual "Festival of Casablanca." A new concept and a unique programming, and many surprises await you.

/ / Let them be reassured, fans of "House Music" will take straight to their usual festival, which returns this year with a new name. More than a name change, this is a new vision that will offer festival-goers this year.

The desire of the organizers this year was to make the term "festival" a more complete sense in going beyond the musical. Thus the program will integrate artistic walks through the city (Nouzah Fennia). The aim of the organizers is to bring the viewer a different perspective on urban space.

A series of multidimensional cultural programs will lend itself to this goal, including services as diverse as storytelling, sculpting, circus, or the various workshops.

Side of the same, the music held an important place in the programming of these four days of festival. A multitude of artists of all kinds should occur on the four scenes. Of international stars are expected, like the Jamaican superstar Sean Paul, or the "Queen" of American hip hop, Missy Elliott, who will perform on stage at the Corniche.

Meanwhile, the gorgeous Haifa Wehbe will certainly be one of the main attractions of the scene M'Sick Ben, along with the group Nass El Ghiwane.

This ^6th edition of "Festival of Casablanca" will also be the occasion for much of the public to discover or rediscover Hindi Zahra Moroccan artist whose first album (Handmade) was released in January 2010.
