This summer marks our 21st anniversary in the Valley, and we decided to pull out all the stops for the occassion. Join us for Ethiopian Fest, a celebration of the African nation and Cafe Lalibela, at Mesa Convention Center in Mesa on Saturday, August 5th, from 6:30PM to 11:00PM.
Guests can anticipate an evening filled with feasting, traditional Ethiopian music, dancing and a special announcement about where the Cafe Lalibela crew is heading in the years to come. Tickets are $40 each and include admission, a buffet dinner, and a chance to win one of three incredible prize packages. Purchase your tickets today at ethiopianfest.splashthat.com.
