Abuja, Nigeria [6 August 2023]: – Norrenberger, an industry-leading, integrated financial services Group, partnered with Bikers with Attitude and Determination (BAD) to host their Motor Bikes and Food Fest 5.0. This one-of-a-kind festival, which took place at Muri Okunola Park, Victoria Island, Lagos, had the objective of changing the perception of people about bikers by emphasizing the power and range of motorcycles while celebrating African food, music, history, and art.
The Motor Bikes and Food Fest 5.0 created an inclusive and dynamic environment, uniting bike enthusiasts, food lovers, and cultural enthusiasts. It included an excellent display of various types and models of motorcycles, immersing attendees in a truly unique experience. The event did not only provide attendees with the opportunity to discover Africa’s different culinary traditions, but also showcased captivating live performances by talented African artists. The music, which was strongly rooted in tradition as well as contemporary, gave a fascinating depth to the celebration of African culture, history, and art.
Prior to the event and as part of the initiative, a charity outreach themed: ‘Jollof to the Streets’ was held where food was distributed to the less privileged. Additionally, a medical outreach was conducted during the main event where volunteering attendees donated blood and free check-ups were carried out.
