In typical Ghanaian culture, December 2025 once again confirmed Ghana’s place as one of Africa’s leading festive destinations.
Across the country, a packed calendar of concerts and cultural events turned December in Ghana into a nationwide celebration, not just an Accra affair.
From the capital to regional hubs, revellers across Ghana’s 16 regions took part in the annual Detty December festivities.
For many, it was a chance to unwind after a demanding year. For others, it was about connection, making new friends, strengthening relationships, and fully embracing the season.
What stood out in 2025 was the spread. December in Ghana delivered experiences across multiple cities, reinforcing a simple reality: Ghana is not Accra alone.
In recognition of this, Ghana Music highlights five notable concerts held in selected cities nationwide during the 2025 festive season.
