Fashion & Lifestyle Vendors
Discover curated brands in fashion, beauty, art and lifestyle. Support Black-owned and diaspora businesses bringing their best work to one space.
About the Event
Lagos In Yankee is a pop-up event proudly hosted by Slymfit Concepts LLC.
Lagos In Yankee was born from a simple truth — culture does not stay behind when you travel. It travels with you, grows with you, and finds new roots wherever you land.
Now in its third edition, LIY is Maryland’s premier Afro-cultural pop-up experience. We bring together vendors, creatives, food makers and community builders to create something that feels less like an event — and more like a homecoming.
Whether you came from Lagos last year or have never set foot on the continent, this is your space. Come hungry, come curious, come ready to connect.
LIY In Motion
The Experience
Discover curated brands in fashion, beauty, art and lifestyle. Support Black-owned and diaspora businesses bringing their best work to one space.
Jollof, suya, puff-puff, fresh juice and more. The food court brings authentic West African flavours and the energy of a Lagos mama’s kitchen.
Afrobeats, Amapiano, highlife and Afro-house — the soundtrack runs all day. Live performances and DJ sets that keep the energy at its peak.
Curated installations, backdrops and creative setups designed for content creators. Leave with content worth posting, not just memories.
Build real connections with founders, creatives and professionals from the diaspora. Lagos In Yankee is where business cards actually get exchanged.
Fashion showcases, storytelling, and cultural programming that honours where we come from — while celebrating where we are building.
