The festival is designed to elevate and highlight the thrilling and thriving millennial talent in Africa by introducing an interactive event that teaches, explains and explores various cultures through a pioneering approach.  You will experience art and creative activations from the continent, celebrate African music, and taste premium and cultured cuisine.

The culture of the Ga people, one of Ghana's indigenous ethnic groups, profoundly influences the dynamic city of Accra and enhances the experiences of those who visit. Ga culture is rich and deeply rooted in the history of the city. It adds a vibrant tapestry to Accra's cultural landscape, featuring lively festivals, traditional music, dance, and a strong sense of community.

Traditional Ga family houses, known as "compound houses," provide a unique lens into Ga society. These houses often include courtyards and communal areas where extended families live together and share responsibilities. Visitors have the privilege of learning about the architecture, layout, and cultural symbolism of these homes.

Accra's warm and hospitable community reflects the Ga people's values. 

A visit to a traditional Ga family house is a window into their way of life. Guests can participate in traditional ceremonies, engage with locals, and witness customs such as naming ceremonies, libations, and storytelling, all of which hold immense cultural significance.

By experiencing the Ga culture and visiting a traditional family Ga house, visitors are given a profound understanding of how Accra's cultural heritage impacts the city's vibrant atmosphere, offering a rich and immersive encounter during their stay.
