The Definitive Guide to Living in the Capital , Cairo , Egypt

Via Shababco

This weekend, Egypt’s young creative and entrepreneurial minds will gather for the long-awaited event: Shababco! Taking place on the 18th and 19th of November at Walk of Cairo in Sheikh Zayed, Shababco’s goal is to present the works and productivity of local creators across artistic fields.

The platform acts as a means for creative youth to get exposure and showcase their hard work! Shababco will now feature 80 brands, 20 artists, 20 performers and one headliner. Unfortunately, there is limited space but if you’re an artist or brand, feel free to see if you can still sign up. The good news is that tickets can still be bought last minute, either online or in person at Tradeline Sodic WestownHUB, Tradeline Zamalek, Tradeline WOC, Tradeline Arkan, and Tradeline Point 90. Any more questions about Shababco can be directed to +2011 2144 0080 or nadia@shababcoeg.com.
