On June 16 Morocco celebrates Eid Al-Adha, literally the celebration of Sacrifice, is a highly revered and celebrated holiday in Muslim countries. It honors the prophet Abraham’s devotion and willingness to sacrifice his son for Allah. This special occasion is marked by the slaughtering of a ram, symbolizing Abraham’s sacrifice, and the distribution of its meat to family, friends, and those in need. Like any other Eid, Moroccans dress up for the occasion and visit family and friends. However, this year, the soaring prices of sheep in the market have made it difficult for many Moroccans, particularly the poor, to afford this traditional practice. The cost of a ram is between $300 and $2000! Despite these challenges, the spirit of Eid Al-Adha remains strong, serving as a reminder of the importance of sacrifice, generosity, and unity in the Moroccan community.

Happy Amazigh New Year!🇲🇦
Amazigh New Year 2974 holds immense significance in the lives of Moroccans, as it marks a historic milestone in the recognition and celebration of Amazigh culture and heritage. For the first time in history, Morocco officially acknowledged this event as a national holiday, symbolizing the government’s acknowledgement and appreciation of the rich Amazigh history that has shaped the populations of North Africa, known for their distinct language, art, music, and customs. This recognition not only validates their cultural identity but also promotes unity and inclusiveness, fostering a sense of pride and belonging among Moroccans of Amazigh descent. It is a moment of celebration and reflection, a time to honor and preserve the Amazigh traditions for future generations, strengthening the country’s cultural diversity and identity.

Wishing a happy birthday to this beautiful music man! Happy birthday Mohamed Aoualou!

Moroccans have always welcomed and often embraced the traditions and celebrations of other cultures.
They built temples for Phoenician and Roman gods and goddesses. They welcomed the Jewish fate and celebrated Hebrew holidays. Moroccans also practiced Christianity in the first centuries of our Era.
Although the majority of Moroccans are Muslim nowadays, Christmas is acknowledged and respected.
Whether you are exploring the bustling streets of Marrakech or attending a Christmas service in Casablanca or Rabat, the holiday season in Morocco is a magical time that brings people together, regardless of their religious and cultural background.

Posted • Today the Moroccan people are celebrating the Green March. I was five years old in 1975. I remember vividly what my mom was cooking on November 6. I can still smell the aromas from the kitchen and feel the heat from the autumn sun. I walked to the main road of Ouarzazate unaccompanied . I was overwhelmed by the number of lorries that carried thousands of people from my town and the outskirts. I found out later on that they were on their way to participate in the historical event of the Green March, a memorable event that defines the borders and the legitimate territory of the kingdom of Morocco.

I am beyond excited to reconnect with our Moroccan fans through AZA's upcoming performances in Morocco. It has been 8 long years since our last visit, and so much has changed within our band and music during that time. Reconnecting with those who first embraced AZA's unique sound will be momentous. Performing in Morocco holds a special significance for our band. As musicians, we draw inspiration from the many rhythms and tones familiar to Moroccan culture, and weave them into our own style. Our Moroccan fans truly "get" AZA's lyrics and vision in a way few others do. These upcoming shows are the culmination of much effort to make this tour happen. I can hardly wait to share our love of music and performance with the wonderful people of Morocco once again.

If you have 2 nights in Marrakech we recommend an evening getaway in the Agafay desert.
Have dinner overlooking the rolling hills and endless canyons. It is the perfect backdrop to experience a gorgeous sunset. Then cast your eyes on the night skies void of light pollution.

We were excited to plan our stay in the Sahara around the full moon. The night became extra special when found out it was a flower moon and a lunar eclipse. After viewing the eclipse we were dazzled by a large fireball falling from the sky. We think this meteorite definitely landed a camel trek away!!
