The Nigeria Masquerade Exhibition is a masterpiece displaying the giant of Africa that has over 300 languages and 200 tribes. Many Nigerian societies have a rich tradition of masquerades. Masquerades are a symbol of culture and customs. They are normally portrayed in colorful robes accompanied by traditional dancers or music. The masks adorned are determined by tradition and beliefs.
