The event aims to celebrate the vibrancy of Afrobeat
Ghanaian Afrobeat duo Keche and rising star Arkay-S are set to headline the maiden edition of the Easter Concert in Paris, scheduled for April 19, 2025.
The much-anticipated event, which aims to celebrate the vibrancy of Afrobeat, gospel, and multicultural artistry, will take place at the renowned New Morning music venue in Paris.
Organised by BNF Joe Etti Production, a France-based events company, in collaboration with Ghana’s Ireva Consults, the Easter Concert promises an unforgettable evening of cross-cultural musical fusion.
It will bring together top performers from Ghana, France, and beyond in a showcase designed to foster international collaboration and promote African music to European audiences.
Alongside Keche and Arkay-S, the lineup features Ghanaian legends Adane Best and Nii Funny, whose performances will blend Afrobeat rhythms with themes of faith and celebration. The gospel side of the concert will be anchored by Elijah the Worshipper, adding spiritual depth to the experience.
France’s A Lucas, Dorothée D’Ornasse, Tee Kae, and Kwame Sucre will also take the stage, bringing a European flair to the concert. Italian artist Sharkura adds an international dimension, ensuring a night rich in musical diversity.
Adding to the excitement are two highly regarded DJs: DJ Mac Tonto, a three-time Ghana DJ Awards winner known for his vibrant sets combining 90s hip-hop, Afrobeats, Amapiano, and Dancehall; and DJ Clenarie, a French-Ghanaian talent with a reputation for electrifying mixes at major Parisian venues such as Palais Maillot and Faust Paris.
The Easter Concert is positioned as more than just a musical event; it’s a cultural bridge.
Organisers hope it will not only spotlight African talent in Europe but also enhance cultural diplomacy and economic cooperation between Ghana and France.
It is also expected to attract music lovers and stakeholders from across Europe and Africa, stimulating tourism and benefiting local businesses and vendors in Paris.
