The 13 groups that made the trip to Kang were Badirammogo from Maake, Inalegolo, Phuduhuu Tshwara from Kokotsha, Xalaxwa from Bere, Future from New Xade, Valley from West Hanahai, Ipeleng from East Hanahai, Uxhauta from Zutshwa, Zowa from Monong, Dipapo from Ukwi, Mothalawangwao from Honhukwi and Ngwate, but did not feature the wedding, puberty and polka dances.

The most common dances displayed were the healing trances, hunting and gathering as well as game dances.
