Music festivals are vibrant cultural events that serve as platforms for entertainment, education, and social interaction, particularly among youth. In Jos North Local Government Area, music festivals have become increasingly popular, offering opportunities for youth engagement through performances, workshops, and networking activities. Studies have shown that music festivals foster creativity, promote cultural exchange, and encourage community participation (Aliyu & Musa, 2023).
