Zimfest will try to provide free housing during the festival in local Seattle homes for participants who request it. If you would like to arrange this type of housing, please fill out a request form and mail, fax, or e-mail it to us. If you live in Seattle, please consider hosting other Zimbabwe music enthusiasts if you are able so that we can offer this low-cost option to as many people as possible.
