Fantasia is a traditional exhibition of horsemanship in the Maghreb performed during local seasonal, cultural or religious festivals, also called mousseum ('season' in Arabic)..The performance is inspired from historical wartime attacks of Berber and desert knights.Today, Fantasia is considered as a cultural art and a form of martial art.It consists of a group of horse riders, wearing traditional clothes and charging along a straight path at the same speed so as to form a line, at the end of the ride (about a two hundred meters) all riders fire in the sky using old gunpowder guns.The difficulty of the performance is synchronization during the acceleration especially during firing so that one single shot is heard.Each region in Morocco has one or several fantasia groups, called serba, totaling thousands of horse riders nationwide. Fantasia is a perfect example of traditional folklore in Morocco!
