The organizers of Afrofuture, previously known as Afrochella Culture Management Group, have made an exciting announcement regarding the 2023 music festival. They have revealed that afrobeats superstars Davido, J Hus, and Black Sherif will serve as the musical headliners for the event.
This year’s music concert will be a two-day celebration, returning to El Wak Sports Stadium in Accra, Ghana, on Thursday, December 28th, and Friday, December 29th. Afrofuture is dedicated to celebrating Africa’s unique culture and the vibrant work of its numerous creatives, artists, and entrepreneurs from across the continent. It promises to be a vibrant and culturally rich event.
In a press release, CMG said “To help heat up the stage, these heavy hitters will be joined by a number of local and international musical acts to make this year’s festival one you don’t want to miss”.
AfroFuture’s 2023 theme, “Black Unification and Pan Africanism,” underscores the festival’s commitment to strengthening the unity of the African diaspora. This theme honors the accomplishments of black pioneers across the diaspora and emphasizes their contributions to art, culture, and innovation.
The theme for this year will explore the global connections and shared experiences of African people, including discussions on the history of the Pan-African movement, the role of the diaspora in global politics, and the significance of diaspora unity.
To bring this theme to life, the AfroFuture festival grounds will undergo a transformation to incorporate various cultural concepts.
These concepts are designed to provide a deeper exploration of the realms of art, music, fashion, culture, and food.
Each area will bring together a diverse range of local creatives, culinary experts, musicians, and artists, creating an engaging and unexpected world for festival attendees to immerse themselves in. The festival promises to offer a rich and immersive cultural experience.
“AfroFuture has always been more than just a festival; it’s a full-circle celebration of everything African – our culture, our people, our talents, and serves as a platform for us to appreciate and acknowledge the larger contributions we make in the world,” said Abdul Karim Abdullah, AfroFuture’s CEO and Co-Founder.
He continue that “this Detty December, we’re back bigger, better, and stronger and we can’t wait to give our global supporters an unforgettable experience by beautifully blending the worlds of food, art, fashion, and music.
“Every year, we look forward to contributing to the growth of Ghana’s tourism and hospitality sectors by welcoming international visitors back to the country to experience not only our events but all that Ghana has to offer.” said Kenny Agyapong Jr., COO & Co-Founder of Afrochella.
