Imagine if your town had a huge celebration every year—full of music, dancing, and delicious food! That’s exactly what happens across Ghana, where different regions and towns hold traditional festivals to honor history, ancestors, and harvest seasons. Some, like Homowo in Accra, mark survival through tough times, while others, like Aboakyer in Winneba, feature exciting deer hunts!

Each Ghanaian festival has its own traditions and usually happens around the same time each year. However, the exact dates aren’t set until close to the festival by local chiefs, so it’s always best to confirm before making plans. Now, let’s dive into Ghana’s amazing festivals and what makes each one special!
