Piesie Esther
Ghanaian gospel music dynamo, Piesie Esther is inviting all believers who have experienced the Grace of God to make their way to the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA) Auditorium on December 3, for an unlimited thanksgiving.
According to her, God has been good to many and for that reason, the event would serve as the right platform for believers to gather and show gratitude to their maker.
Dubbed, the ‘Flora Made By Grace II Concert’ led by Piesie, the event would also feature Joyce Blessing, Kofi Owusu Peprah, Perez Musik, Celestine Donkor, Nacee and Mavis Asante.
Additionally, the patrons would be treated to good music by the evergreen musical trio, Daughters of Glorious Jesus.
Speaking to The Spectator Agoro, Piesie Esther said, “those who believe that God has been good to them should come in their numbers to express their thanksgiving.”
The musician said, regardless of the challenges the world was facing, God has been good.
“He has given us life, and many others money cannot buy. This is why we need to gather and give thanks to God for all that He has done in our lives,“ she stressed.
She expressed appreciation to all stakeholders for the unflinching support, adding that with this level of commitment, this year’s edition would be bigger.
Piesie Esther further thanked Flora for the immeasurable support provided to the concert.
She recently released a single dubbed ‘Mo’ which is enjoying massive airplay and topping charts across the world.

Accra is set this weekend as Porials Pitch 2026 makes its highly anticipated return—an event that has rapidly evolved from a social media-driven concept into one of the country most influential retail gatherings.
Set for Saturday, April 18, 2026, at Accra Mall (Ghud Park), the festival will open its doors at 8:00 AM, drawing a mix of bargain hunters, young entrepreneurs, and lifestyle enthusiasts eager to experience what has become a defining moment on Accra’s commercial calendar.
Dulcie Boateng—entrepreneur, influencer, and CEO of Dulcie Porium—whose ability to mobilize audiences both online and offline continues to reshape the local retail landscape. Often dubbed Ghana’s “Snapchat Queen,” Boateng has leveraged her digital influence into tangible economic impact, with Porials Pitch standing as a prime example.
More Than a Market
While at first glance the event may appear to be a conventional pop-up market, Porials Pitch has steadily carved out a niche as a hybrid of commerce, culture, and community engagement. This year’s edition will feature 100 vendors, offering a curated blend of vintage pieces, emerging fashion brands, beauty products, and mainstream goods—many at discounted prices reaching up to 50 percent.
The Business Behind the Buzz
Perhaps the most telling indicator of the event’s momentum lies behind the scenes. Vendor slots for the 2026 edition reportedly sold out in just two minutes, generating approximately GH¢600,000—a figure that speaks not only to demand but also to the growing confidence in influencer-led commerce within Ghana.
A Reflection of a Changing Retail Culture
As Ghana’s urban consumer culture continues to evolve, events like Porials Pitch 2026 highlight a broader shift toward experience-driven retail—where shopping is no longer just transactional but social and immersive.
With free entry and an open invitation to the public, this weekend’s gathering is expected to draw significant crowds, reinforcing Accra’s reputation as a hub for innovation in commerce and youth-driven enterprise.
Whether viewed as a marketplace, a cultural event, or a case study in modern entrepreneurship, Porials Pitch 2026 is poised to once again capture the city’s attention—and its spending power.
