EPIK Leaders WELCOME FEST : A Pan-African back-to-school event under the banner of commitment, celebration, and community.

To mark the launch of EPIK LEADERS’ activities across the continent, the WELCOME FEST is being introduced as a unique and unprecedented highlight. This opening festival, running over several weeks from September 15 to October 31, 2025, aims to bring together the network’s young leaders, welcome new members, showcase the most active clubs, and strengthen the sense of community within the movement. Designed as a unifying moment, the WELCOME FEST unfolds in several Moroccan cities through diverse and inspiring formats. Coordinated with EPIK LEADERS clubs and ambassadors, it sets a new momentum for the entire network at the start of the year.

Objectives of the WELCOME FEST:

• Create a strong and engaging framework to welcome new members,
• Celebrate the commitments and achievements of active clubs,
• Encourage interconnection and synergy among network members,
• Launch the year’s key priorities in a spirit of celebration and action.

A program in the spirit of EPIK LEADERS:

For nearly a month and a half, each club organizes activities tailored to its local context, such as:

• Official opening ceremonies,
• Inter-club meetings and networking sessions,
• Thematic workshops and inspiring masterclasses,
• Collective challenges, team-building games, and festive moments,

A new season to inspire, connect, and take action

In a world searching for meaning and engagement, the WELCOME FEST embodies EPIK LEADERS’ commitment to building a united, ambitious, and action-driven pan-African community. This collective launch also serves as a springboard: to inspire involvement, to highlight inspiring journeys, and to jointly build high-impact projects.
