The David Livingstone Bicentenary Initiative, in collaboration with the Livingstone 2013 project, is thrilled to unveil the Provisional Calendar of Events & Festivals for this historic year. As the birthplace of Dr. David Livingstone, the city of Livingstone, Zambia, will come alive with a series of vibrant events, each designed to honor the legacy of one of history’s most celebrated explorers.

The calendar promises a year filled with cultural, artistic, and sporting events, all carefully curated to reflect Livingstone’s spirit of exploration, education, and his tireless fight against slavery. From international arts festivals to lively street carnivals, these events will showcase the rich cultural tapestry of Zambia and its neighboring countries, inviting participants and visitors from around the globe.

Each event is a celebration of African heritage and a testament to the enduring impact of Dr. Livingstone’s work. The year 2013 will not only mark the 200th anniversary of his birth but also serve as a platform for cultural exchange, unity, and the creation of lasting partnerships.

As we prepare to host these exciting events, we invite everyone to join us in Livingstone for a year of celebration, reflection, and community. The full calendar of events will be available soon, and we encourage all to stay tuned for further details. Livingstone 2013 is not just a celebration of the past but a vibrant step into the future, beating to the rhythm of African culture and unity.
