Everything is in place for the start this week of the 11th edition of the National Culture Festival, taking place in Maputo province..

The guarantee comes from the Minister of Culture and Tourism, Eldevina Materula, who visited the venues that will house the artists from the various cultural events this Saturday.

Eldevina Materula also visited the places where the stages will be set up to host the performances of the country's vast cultural mosaic.

"We are more than ready, Maputo province is already at the accommodation site, we were there in Boane. There are one or three things we have to improve and we want to recognize this need so that we can better welcome our artists who are coming," said Materula, quoted by Rádio Moçambique.

The XI National Culture Festival will take place from Wednesday to Sunday.
