Afroyaad is a cultural festival rooted in the spirit of connection - bringing together the rich, expressive worlds of Jamaica and Nigeria through music, art, fashion, and storytelling. As a festival built on cross-cultural dialogue, Afroyaad needed a visual identity that could speak to both legacies while also establishing something new and distinctive.

MetaCraft partnered with the Afroyaad team to develop the key visual and foundational design direction for the festival’s debut edition in Kingston, Jamaica. From initial creative strategy to execution, our role was to interpret the heart of the festival into a visual system that felt bold, relevant, and culturally grounded.

The final key visual blends symbolism, illustration, and composition to reflect the rhythm, energy, and shared spirit of both regions. Our design work played a key role in defining Afroyaad’s public presence, helping shape how the festival was perceived - from event posters to digital content, by making it instantly recognizable and deeply rooted in identity.

Through this collaboration, MetaCraft has helped establish Afroyaad not just as an event, but as a cultural moment - elevating its visibility, strengthening its brand, and setting a strong visual foundation for its future editions.
