Dak'Art 2026 — Dakar Biennale

The international exhibition and the design section are mainly held at the former Palais de Justice, in the Plateau; the Off programme is spread across galleries and spaces throughout the city. Venue details are still to be announced by the organiser.

It is the dry season: warm days, around 27–30 °C, cooler evenings by the ocean.

Yes. This desk is open to every business traveller in Dakar during this period: accommodation, transfers, meeting rooms, cars with drivers, tours. Describe your needs and we will send you several proposals.

We look for availability in our network, near the venue and in other districts, and arrange the transfers. Contact us as soon as your dates are set: the earlier the request, the wider the choice.

It depends on your nationality: many countries are exempt from visas for short stays. Check with the Senegalese embassy in your country before booking, and see our practical information.

The currency is the CFA franc (XOF), pegged to the euro: 1 euro equals 655.957 CFA francs. Cards are accepted in business hotels and many restaurants; keep some cash for small purchases. Mobile payment is widely used.

Taxis and ride-hailing apps are available. To keep to a meeting schedule or move a group, a car with a driver remains the safest option: we book it for you.

By the hour, half-day or day, in a hotel near the event venue or your accommodation. Describe your needs and we will send you several proposals.

Interpreters, restaurants for a business dinner, reception venues: we call on the verified professionals in our network.

Gorée is about twenty minutes by ferry from Dakar port; the Petite Côte, Saint-Louis and the Sine Saloum suit a two- or three-day stay. Our experiences offer ideas; we organise the programme.
