    America Coachella sued Afrochella out of jealousy. They never thought the event would generate this much attention and become this big. Thank God they got the 'chella' replaced. 'AfroFuture' sounds good..well done guys✌️👏👏👏👏👏👏

      Bias aside, it wasn't out of jealousy it was to remove any confusion that that Cochella and Afrochella are associated. Whilst I don't agree with the suit I can understand it.

    Wish they had chosen a different name, it sounds too familiar to USA Coachella.

    Change the name and make it really your own - oh and don't forget to trademark it!

      The should just change the name to Afrochalle which is more appropriate. Challe is authentically Ghanaian with a meaning or connotation of friendship. Afrochalle will thus mean African friendship or friendliness which more depicts Ghanaian hospitality which is known globally. They should have done a better research and chose a more meaningful and appropriate term. Afrochalle fits their festival the best and it will still resonate to patrons worldwide
