Master Musicians of Joujouka Brian Jones 40th Anniversary Festival July 2008 took place on the anniversary of Brian Jones recocording the seminal "Brian Jones presents the Pipes of Pan at Joujouka".
In 2009 the Master Musicians second annual festival in their home village continued this intersting event which allows people to explore Joujouka/Jajouka and see what life is actually like there away from the histronics of commercialised versions of their music.  The festival was moved from late July as the Fete du Throne of Mohamed VI the king of Morocco takes places in the last week of July and the musicians are annually called on to play as representitives of their region.
