Magal Festival in Senegal: Pilgrims crowd into buses to reach Touba

Magal Festival in Senegal Pilgrims crowd into buses to reach

The Magal 2024 takes place on Friday, August 23 in the Senegalese holy city of Touba, which expects some 5 million faithful from the Mouride community. As every year, getting there can be a real headache. In an attempt to limit the problems, the government asked the company Dakar Dem Dikk to organize a special connection and to increase the number of trips on August 21 and 22 between the capital and Touba. At the four departure points, there was a crush trying to find a place on a bus.
