Gaborone International Music and Culture Week (GIMC) is a multi-disciplinary annual event in Gaborone, Botswana. Founded in August 2014, the week-long event is held every first week of September to celebrate the city of Gaborone through music, theatre, comedy, poetry, fashion and other cultural activities. The GIMC calendar resonates with the country’s independence celebrations that are held in the same month. The event is famed for inviting top artists in the region to perform alongside international musicians. Some of the proceeds from the event are donated to NGOs that seek to uplift less fortunate members of the community.
