Nuits Atypiques de Koudougou

Les Nuits Atypiques de Koudougou (NAK) have taken place annually in Koudougou, Burkina Faso, since being founded in 1996 by Koudbi Koala, in a sister relationship with the Nuits Atypiques de Langon festival in France. The event features concerts and artistic encounters bringing together Burkinabe and international artists, alongside a cultural village, exhibitors, a stage for emerging talent and a children's space. Recognized as one of the country's major cultural gatherings, it regularly spotlights traditional instruments and craftsmanship.
