Abstract
The wave of modernity and cultural transformation permeating every society and facets of life has
made it very necessary to devise and explore various medium of documenting and rejuvenating oral
traditions and folklores especially folk dance among indigenous Africans. This in essence is to sustain
the continuity and relevance of the numerous African dance forms against extinction in a changing
world. This paper applies the participant and non participant observation research approach to
explore the choreographic value of Ebira-Echeori dance and festival performance as a viable means
of tourism in Nigeria
