A Dazzling Celebration for Amazigh New Year 2975

Last night, the sky above Agadir’s promenade lit up with breathtaking fireworks displays to celebrate the Amazigh New Year 2975. The vibrant colors and intricate designs created a magical atmosphere that captivated the large crowd in attendance.

At the stroke of midnight on January 14th, spectators of all ages and nationalities gathered to enjoy the symphony of lights, colors, and rhythms. The sounds of joy blended seamlessly with each burst of light illuminating the sky, offering a stunning fusion of Amazigh traditions and modern celebration along Agadir’s beachfront.

This festive moment also served as a symbolic farewell to the year 2974 and a warm welcome to 2975, filled with renewed optimism and aspirations for prosperity and happiness for all Moroccans.

The event aimed to highlight Amazigh culture as a fundamental component of Moroccan identity while promoting values of coexistence and cultural openness. Additionally, it sought to position Agadir as a prime cultural and tourist destination both nationally and internationally.

The celebration aligns with the royal decree by His Majesty King Mohammed VI, establishing January 14th, the first day of the Amazigh year, as an official public holiday in Morocco. This initiative emphasizes the recognition of Amazigh culture as an integral part of Morocco’s national identity.

For the Amazigh people, « Iïd n’Yennayer » marks the start of the agricultural season, reflecting their deep connection to the land. It also embodies the richness and diversity of Morocco’s cultural fabric and the commitment to advancing the official status of the Amazigh language and culture.
