For 2023, every artist we put on the bill will be spectacular and every dollar invested will be worth it. It will be an eventful night to remember. We will continue to remain dedicated to these cherished lifetime experiences.”

Since its inception in 2009, on the occasion of Ghana at 52 celebrations, the annual Ghana’s Independence celebration is recognized and honored across many countries among Ghanaian communities to commemorate the day Ghana achieved its independence. Previous editions have featured a star-studded lineup of spectacular performances, including Bisa Kdei, Kofi Kinaata, and Fameye.
