All is set for the forthcoming Ohio Ghana Festival, organizers of the prestigious event have confirmed.
Barring any unforeseen glitches, it is scheduled to take place in Columbus, Ohio, at the Discount Mall, 2765 S Hamilton Road, from July 31 to August 3, 2025.
Guinness World Records (GWR) contender Afua Asantewaa O. Aduonum, known in traditional circles as Nana Asantewaa Anomatsewaa I, will be among high-profile dignitaries, including King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, for the four-day event.
Themed “Bridging Cultures, Celebrating Heritage: Our Ghana Beyond Borders,” the premier event brings together individuals, families, and communities to honor Ghanaian traditions through cultural performances, music, dance, food, and educational activities.
Afua Asantewaa, who will also be performing at the event and is a women’s empowerment advocate, stated, **”I must commend the organizers for putting together such a brilliant project. Indeed, it is an honor to be part of this festival. The theme sums up what we have been discussing over the years.
“I believe participants will leave the event empowered to transform their respective spheres of endeavor. And it is my prayer that the organizers make it an annual event.”**
The Ohio Ghana Festival is more than just an event—it’s a celebration of heritage, unity, and the African spirit. Whether you are Ghanaian, part of the diaspora, or simply a lover of African culture, this festival offers an immersive experience that fosters cultural pride and appreciation.
