The Africa Media Festival (AMF) returns for its third edition on February 26-27, 2025, at the National Museums of Kenya in Nairobi. Known as a gathering that connects media professionals, storytellers, and innovators from across the continent, AMF has become a key platform for collaboration and meaningful conversations about the future of African media.
With over 1,300 attendees, 120 speakers, and 50 sessions in its first two years, AMF continues to set the standard for engaged, inclusive events that advance media practices and amplify African voices. This year’s theme, “Bridging Gaps, Connecting Media Futures,” aims to address structural, technological, and cultural challenges in African media while building pathways for collaboration and representation.“The Africa Media Festival is our annual creative recharge station. It’s like finding an oasis in the desert, except we are guzzling inspiration and fresh ideas instead of water. This year, we’re jazzed to see how the media and creative world have been doing their version of a glow-up, keeping pace with shifting audience vibes and the tech rollercoaster we’re all riding. We can’t wait to hear your stories, your wins, and even your ‘What-was-I-thinking?’ moments, ” said Maurice Otieno, Executive Director at Baraza Lab.
