Ghana Tourism Authority deputy boss Abeiku Santana announced that the annual December in Ghana is getting spread across every region instead of just camping out in Accra like usual. The expanded format runs on seven different themes covering food, books, fashion, culture, movies, and music to pump up the country's creative scene nationwide.
Activities kicked off early with stuff already happening in Greater Accra, Sekondi, and Cape Coast. One highlight is Taste 68, which showcases 68 traditional dishes made by local cooks, featuring wild innovations like a layered cake made from eto.
The tourism board locked down partnerships with creative industry players and is planning an African Film Festival with over 21 countries participating. Santana pushed the idea that Ghana has become the go-to spot for Christmas celebrations globally, and spreading the economic benefits around different regions makes the whole setup more equitable.
