In celebration of International Women’s Month 2026, 21 Magazine will host a special edition of Girls That Gather, our recurring event that brings women together through culture, creativity, and meaningful conversation.
21 Magazine is a digital women’s magazine that has garnered a community for its big-sister approach to African women’s issues and culture. 21 Magazine has become a go-to platform for women in Africa and across the diaspora for topics on wellness, community, beauty, and more.
Girls That Gather was created as an intentional space for women to connect beyond the digital world. The International Women’s Day edition expands on this mission by spotlighting the power of community, collaboration, and creative expression among African women.
The event will take place on March 28, 2026, at Fired & Iced in Lagos. In partnership with Uncover Africa, ProducHERS, and Beauty Hut, the International Women’s Day edition will transform the venue into an exciting gathering for over 250 women from the fashion, media, music, business, and creative industries.
This special March edition will offer an immersive experience for 250 women to unwind, reflect, and recharge. Through thoughtful activities, interactive workshops, and inspiring brand activations, attendees will have the opportunity to explore, create, and connect. The event will also feature a curated marketplace spotlighting women-led brands, celebrating the women shaping culture across Lagos.
Speaking of the event, the team at 21 Magazine shared:
“Girls That Gather is about creating spaces where women feel seen, supported, and inspired by one another. Women’s Month felt like the perfect moment to bring our community together in a way that feels joyful, collaborative, and built on connection.”
The event is part of 21 Magazine’s dedication to amplifying the voices, work, and networks of African women who were once marginalized across culture and industry.
