Patrons will have a wonderful experience at this year’s International AmoFest, slated for today at the Alliance Française in Accra.
This edition will see the brain behind the event, Berima Amo, teaming up with Pedro Kastelijns, Martha Apini, Rudy Ray, and Lamisi.
Revellers will also enjoy a performance from Uncle Ebo Whyte’s Roverman Production.
Speaking at the launch of the event, which took place at Yota Building on Tuesday, in Accra, Berima Amo said this edition would be a three-in-one experience for patrons.
“They will enjoy performances from the musicians, a play from Uncle Ebo Whyte and an after-party which will make their night memorable,” he revealed.
He said, global music will be celebrated because there would be a blend with Ghana’s highlife, adding that the event was to ensure Ghana’s original sound was not lost in the midst of other sounds.
Berima Amo calls for some intentionality in protecting and promoting Ghana’s Highlife rhythms to the rest of the world.
According to him, in achieving this, every Ghanaian must play a crucial role in making this dream a reality.
He called on government and state institutions to create the enabling environment for Highlife to thrive.
This year’s event happens to be the fourth edition since the inception of International AmoFest.
This year’s event was preceded by a workshop for over 250 High School students on April 24 at the Centre for National Culture, Arts Centre.
