The Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA) and SyPhics Studios, an innovative
multimedia firm that specializes in events have launched the third
edition of AfroFEST at the TMA office in Tema.
AfroFest is a 7-day festival that seeks to unite with local stakeholders, celebrate and showcase the rich Ghanaian culture and put Tema and Ghana on the map of cultural excellence. Across the Diaspora and the world at large, Ghana has been known for its vibrancy through fashion, cuisine and music. AfroFest is a display of all the beauty that Ghana has to offer and above all, a platform to unite us and be proud of our African roots.
The event will be organized by the Tema Metropolitan Assembly under the auspices of the Mayor (Metropolitan Chief Executive), Mr Felix Mensah Nii Anang-La and managed by SyPhics Studios Limited in collaboration with Renegades Africa, 4SYTE TV, and a consortium of young talented men with varied experiences in events management.
Speaking at the event, The Tema Mayor said: “This is the Year of Return and we are happy that our brothers and sisters are returning from all over the world and are coming to Ghana. The global spotlight is on Ghana and we want to showcase our rich culture and hospitality as we always do. Everyone is welcomed to Tema for the next 7 days and beyond.
