Ankara Miami 2020 - Florida's Premier African Fashion Week
Event Information
Description
Ankara Miami 2020 POSTPONED
Due to growing health concern related to CoronaVirus (COVID-19) and after much consideration, #TeamAnkaraMiami has decided to postpone our upcoming African Fashion Week previously scheduled for March 26-29.
While we know our faithful patrons and newly found friends may be disappointed, our decision is being made with all factors considered including the recent status upgrade to 'global pandemic', our international participants travel restrictions, and most especially, all of our health and well-being.
We will be updating the Official Ankara Miami Week website (AnkaraMiamiWeek.com) with information regarding the new event dates, transfer/refund requests, and designer/vendor participation. Ticket sales and FREE RSVP will remain open.
We ask that you all continue to take proper cautionary action and remain vigilant in maintaining standard safety practices, ie hand washing, staying home when sick, etc.
We're grateful for your support and understanding and look forward to announcing new dates as soon as possible!
Florida's Premier African Fashion Week returns to beautiful South Florida for the 9th annual celebration of African fashion!
