Bag check on Liberation Road, food yard open from the first minute. Come early — the queue at seven is the queue everyone complains about.

Palm Grove opens
Selorm Adzah under the trees while the square is still filling. The quietest good set of the night.
3
8:00 PM
Main stage
Kwabena Osei with a full band, then a changeover you will want to spend at the drum circle rather than the bar.

Afterwards
What the square says
Collected on the way out and after the shuttles, which is the only time anybody tells you the truth about a festival.
Audience
I have been to every one since 2019 and it is the only night in Accra where I know the sound will be right. You can hear the bass guitar. At a festival. That should not be remarkable and it is.

Audience
We sponsored the food yard expecting a logo on a banner. What we got was nine thousand people who now know our name and a production team that answered every email in a day.
