Kinshasa, March 11th, 2026 (CPA).- Singer Herve Ferre Gola from the Democratic Republic of Congo has been chosen to perform at an evening event on March 24th in Athens, Greece, as part of the activities dedicated to women’s rights in March, the artist has announced on Wednesday on his social media page, consulted by CPA. ‘On March 24th, I will be in Athens for a cultural event organised as part of Women’s Rights Month. Ferre Gola will perform in Athens during a cultural evening dedicated to women,’ the singer has written on Facebook.
According to the same source, this production is part of a cultural evening organised by DRC embassy in Greece and Cyprus, as an extension of Women’s Rights Day, celebrated on March 8th of each year. According to journalist Tarick Ngangu, a member of the artist’s communications team, contacted by CPA, ‘this performance by Ferre Gola, who is the embassy’s guest, will have the impact of perpetuating the values of DRC abroad and preserving the authenticity of the country’s culture, in particular the intrinsic values of women and morality.’ ‘Music plays a major role in raising awareness of women’s rights, as it can educate, inform and entertain while highlighting certain priorities that concern them.
Women remain resilient, a source of inspiration and a vehicle for culture,’ he has explained. This event aims to bring together members of the Congolese diaspora living in Greece, as well as several personalities from the diplomatic and cultural world, around a programme highlighting the richness of Congolese rumba. Ferre Gola is also expected on April 4th, 2026, at the Accor Arena in Paris, France, for a concert as part of his summer music tour in Europe.
