The Maa Cultural and Tourism Festival, now in its third edition, is being powered by the governors of Kajiado, Narok, and Samburu counties. The week-long event, running from November 4 to 9 at Amboseli National Park, celebrates Maasai heritage, unity, and culture while boosting tourism.

• The festival marks the return of Amboseli National Park to the Kajiado County Government, with President William Ruto scheduled to officially hand over the park.
• Narok Governor Patrick Ole Ntutu highlighted that the transfer means Kajiado County will now receive approximately Ksh 1.5 billion annually from park revenues.
• Samburu Governor Jonathan Lati Lelelit advocated for a Maasai Cultural Fund to ensure the long-term preservation of Maasai traditions and recognize their significant contribution to Kenya's tourism industry.
