Makunduchi is mostly known for the Mwaka Kogwa or Mwaka Koga ("show of the year") celebrations, of Shirazi heritage, that take place in July/August to celebrate the New Year. In Mwaka Kogwa, a ritual battle is fought, at the end of which a hut is burned. Then, predictions are made for the new year, based on the direction taken by the smoke. Tours are organised to visit the festival and to explain and point out the customs. (en)
