Like the Egyptian Coptic, Ethiopian calendar have a year of 13 months. The first 12 months have 30 days each, and the last 13th month has 5 days and 6 days in leap year. The name of the 13th month is in Ge’ez and known as PAGUMIENE. This uniquely short but sweet month of PAGUMIENE just started here in Ethiopia and is going to last for the next six days or five days. The 13th month of PAGUMIENE is more like a transition moment, getting all ready for the New Year celebration, and of course reflecting on the old year and making a resolution for the coming Ethiopian New year. At the heart of Puagmae festival is the aspiration to represent collective cultural knowledge in a grassroots way. This approach encourages the free and informed participation of tradition bearers who it is hoped will play a central role in the shape of the festival’s development and overall outcome.
The Entoto Park is a sprawling urban oasis at the northernmost edge of Addis Ababa, offering a panoramic view of the city. This park spans over 1,300 hectares, encompassing a blend of natural and developed landscapes that reflect the diverse ecological features of the Ethiopian highlands. As such, it provides an exemplary setting for celebrating and hosting diverse cultural events.
