The Gambian Association Oslo Norway presents Baaba Maal with Dande Lenol
Baaba Maal and Dande Lenol at the 40th Anniversary of Gambian Cultural Week in Oslo!
This year, the Gambian Association in Oslo celebrates 40 years since its founding in 1986 (the same year Rockefeller was established) – and the anniversary will be marked with a very special concert experience at Sentrum Scene on Friday, July 31!
The legendary Baaba Maal, one of Africa’s most acclaimed voices, comes to Oslo together with his band Dande Lenol. With his unique blend of traditional African music and modern influences, he has captivated audiences around the world for decades.
Many also know him from the music of the global blockbuster “Black Panther”, where his voice helped elevate the film’s powerful soundtrack. In addition, he performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert in 2010, a testament to his international significance and ability to connect with people across cultures.
This will not just be a concert – it will be a celebration of culture, history, and community. With energetic rhythms, powerful melodies, and a truly special stage presence, Baaba Maal and Dande Lenol promise an evening you will not soon forget.
This is a rare opportunity to experience a living legend in the heart of Oslo. Whether you love African music or are simply looking for a unique concert experience, this is something you do not want to miss.
Secure your tickets now – this will be one of the highlights of the summer!
Doors open at 19:00.
Tickets provide access to both standing areas in the main hall and unreserved seating in the gallery, available on a first-come, first-served basis.
