Abankese Festival 2024 Ignites Cultural Pride In Central region

At the mention of castles in Ghana, what readily comes to mind is the slave trade, but the Abankese Music Festival has, since its inception, shown there is more to the beautiful fortresses in the Central region.
And this year, the just-ended festival, among others, deepened the cultural heritage of castles and eased the negative feelings they evoke among Ghanaians.
Previous editions have seen Wanlov The Kubolor, Skrewfaze, Kojo Vypa, Lil Sherif, Saa Boy Non Don Prophecy, Akatakyie, Orkortor, Ded Buddy, and Ama Nova perform.
According to the organizers, the Abankese Music Festival is a celebration of music, arts, and culture, offering residents in Cape Coast and its environs the chance to appreciate the beauty of their cultural heritage through music.
