Davido, the Nigerian artist, Black Sherif from Ghana, and British-Gambian rapper J Hus have been officially announced as the headliners for the upcoming AfroFuture 2023 festival in Accra, Ghana. The festival is scheduled for December 28 and 29 and will take place at its traditional venue, the El Wak Stadium.

The event, previously known as Afrochella, is organized by the Culture Management Group and serves as a celebration of African culture, showcasing the works of creatives and entrepreneurs from across the continent. This year’s edition follows the theme of “Black Unification & Pan Africanism.” Organizers aim to honor the achievements of black pioneers across the diaspora, emphasizing their contributions to art, culture, and innovation. The festival also delves into topics such as global connections, shared experiences among Africans and in pan-African history, and the diaspora’s political role.

AfroFuture’s co-founder and CEO, Abdul Karim Abdullah, emphasized the festival’s significance, stating, “AfroFuture has always been more than just a festival; it’s a full-circle celebration of everything African – our culture, our people, our talents.” He expressed excitement about the upcoming event, promising a unique experience blending the worlds of food, art, fashion, and music for their global supporters.

Kenny Agyapong, AfroFuture’s COO and co-founder, added that the festival contributes to Ghana’s tourism and hospitality sectors by attracting international visitors to experience not only their events but also the broader offerings of Ghana. He highlighted AfroFuture’s role in fostering engagement, increasing interest, and boosting tourism in Ghana, making it a premier destination for travelers worldwide.

In addition to the festival, AfroFuture 2023 features various other activities. The Afro Expo 2023 is a two-week event offering digital experiences, wellness sessions, screenings, and panel discussions. These discussions cover topics such as culture, technology, health, film, music, and art, creating a platform for connecting the diaspora with industry experts and changemakers actively creating opportunities in Africa.
