In 1933, the very first Vodoun Festival was held and celebrated in order to readapt the traditions of Voodoo. The President, name Nicéphore Dieudonné Soglo, was the one who declared this festival and he wanted to commemorate the value that the religions had and adapt the African spirituality for them worldwide. So, therefore, this holiday became annually, and officially, in 1998 on January 10th. Summary
