Preparations for this year’s Mulhako wa Alhomwe annual feast have reached an advanced stage, with organisers promising fireworks at the October 18 event at Chonde in Mulanje.
The feast will be held under the theme “Heritage Preservation for Sustainable Development.”
Mulhako wa Alhomwe chairperson Muchanakwaye Mpuluka said the theme will guide the activities and cultural showcases planned for the event.
“We are using this theme in all we are going to do, and all we are going to showcase,” he said.

Mpuluka said the feast is open to everyone, regardless of their cultural background.
He said the event is not only about celebrating Lhomwe culture, but also brings people from different cultures together.
“It is more than celebration of the Lhomwe culture, but a gathering that brings together diverse cultures; hence, it unites Malawians,” he said.
Mulhako wa Alhomwe was established in 2007 to promote, preserve and revive Lhomwe culture and traditions.
The annual feast has become one of the organisation’s major events, featuring traditional dances, music, food and other cultural activities.
This year’s feast is expected to attract people from different parts of the country as the organisation continues to promote Lhomwe heritage and cultural unity.
