Artists
We carefully choose only the Best of the Bests to serve you the most authentic Kizomba experience. We prefer to work with Angolan / PALOP teachers and DJs, and some of the most authentic European artists too.
Bonifácio Aurio
Teacher & Singer
He is part of our team since 2015, the Showman himself! Amazing teacher, animator, singer, and social dancer - a real multitalent! There is no BKC without Bonifácio, he is the vibe himself!!
Fanio de Araújo
Teacher
First time at our event, straight from the source! He is one of the TOP dancers in Luanda, a real superstar when it comes to Semba Show. 3 times finalist at the National championship of Angola, he is only a new face on European festival lineups, but definitely an old dog when it comes to teaching and performing in the homeland of Kizomba.
Miro Kikola
deejay
A beast on the mix, the best PALOP DJ of the UK, for the first time in Budapest! He gonna set the place on fire... What we requested from him is to play as if he was playing at an event in Angola. No time for average music at BKC, only the BEST!
Anna Maria & Carlos Camba
teachers
Probably the most wanted kizomba & semba teachers in the international scene at the moment. She is Finnish, he is Angolan, and together they are pure professionalism. It is their first time at our event, but we are already looking forward to the elegance they gonna bring to our festival.
Filipe Sabura
deejay
The most requested DJ by our guests, he is a first timer at BKC but we have been his fans since 2013. Finally it's his time to spin the decks in Budapest!
Frank Glaser
deejay
His nickname is Dj Interpol, because he knows tracks only the hardcore Angolans know... And he gonna play you his secret shots the 2nd time as a BKC official.
Nicolet Hamvas
deejay & ceo
If you are a BKC fan, you surely know her face... She is our boss lady, the creator of BKC, and the leader of our team and of the Budapest Kizomba community. And also an aspiring DJ. ;)
Alexandra de Brito
teachers
She is from Cape Verde and she gonna bring the real african ginga and female energy to BKC for the first time.
