Preparing your visit
In Kolwezi

Plan your arrival
Kolwezi can be reached by air via Lubumbashi, Kinshasa, or Johannesburg. Most international participants transit through Lubumbashi before continuing to Kolwezi.
It is also possible to travel by road from Lubumbashi. However, depending on the season, road conditions may vary.
Due to high demand during the KBM period, flights and accommodation can be limited. We strongly recommend booking your travel and stay in advance.
