Afrobeat artist Seun Kuti and the Egypt 80 band gave a fantastic performance at the end of the evening, receiving a standing ovation from the audience.

Amvca8, which lasted a week and culminated in an award night, was a colorful affair to say the least. Aside from Seun’s performance, there was enough to select from for fun seekers from all walks of life who contributed color to the evening with their native attire.

The Best Dressed Male and Female categories will be awarded this year, which is one of the highlights of the show. Those in attendance will have the opportunity to vote for the winners in that category.
