Our Story · Our Community
Since 2020, we've been bringing Akure together to celebrate Eid in the most joyful way possible.
Celebrating together, connecting forever.
Eid Picnic is an annual community celebration organized by Jannah Immigrants. What started in 2020 as a small gathering of friends in a garden has grown into Akure's most anticipated Eid tradition.
