The Ashanti Regional capital, Kumasi, will be getting a new arena designed for funfairs, social events, concerts and more. This exciting development was revealed by media personality MC Portfolio in a Facebook post.
According to MC Portfolio, the idea for the arena came after he met with a private investor who reached out to him earlier this year.
During their meeting, they discussed ways to enhance Kumasi’s creative economy and Portfolio proposed the concept of an enclosed arena.
With land now secured for the project, MC Portfolio announced that The Boss Arena is expected to be ready by the end of January.

He shared a video of the designated site, captioning it:
“Earlier this year, I received a call from a private investor inviting me to meet with a board to discuss what Kumasi needs to boost its creative economy. One key proposal I raised was an enclosed arena for funfairs, social events, and concerts, among other things.
They directed me to vast acres of land and assured me they would develop it into a space capable of hosting entertainment events! ❤️❤️❤️
Ladies and gentlemen, I can confidently assure you that by the close of JANUARY, Kumasi will have an event-friendly venue named The Boss Arena (located near Honey Bite Restaurant, close to Simms SHS) to serve the needs of artists, event promoters, political parties, media houses, and the creative ecosystem! 🔥🔥🔥
I’m thrilled we can now host events without overburdening the limited venues currently available in the city. Welcome to a new chapter! ✊🏽 The name The Boss Arena was chosen by me to align with the vision of the investors. 🥂”
This development is expected to significantly bolster Kumasi’s creative economy by providing a state-of-the-art venue for various events, reducing the strain on existing facilities and creating new opportunities for entertainment and creativity.
