Chad

Chad’s national day is August 11, Independence Day.

The Embassy of Chad offers a fascinating window into the rich traditions of the Sahel region, where you can discover the vibrant music, art, and heritage of this often-overlooked West African nation. While major events may be sparse, this embassy is a wonderful resource for those curious about Chad's diverse ethnic cultures, traditional crafts, and the country's unique position at the crossroads of North and sub-Saharan Africa. Keep an eye out for special occasions and cultural celebrations—connecting with the embassy directly is a great way to stay informed about intimate gatherings and cultural programs that showcase Chad's music, cuisine, and artistic traditions.
