Ms. Hill will be in Ghana for the second edition of the Afrobeats Big Weekend Festival together with Ghanaian home-grown talents and Nigerian artistes, BBnZ, organisers of the event, confirmed in an official statement.
It said all talks and arrangements have been finalised and come this December; the American icon would be going live at Ghana’s Independence Square.
The maiden edition of the concert occurred last year in December and had performances from the likes of Samini, Shatta Wale, Efya, Okyeame Kwame, Stonebwoy, Joey B, C-Real, Kaakie and Nigeria’s very own, Ice Prince.
This year’s Afrobeats Big Weekend Festival will take place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, August 12, 13 and 14 of December, 2014 at the Independence Square.
On the Friday, there will be a Hip-hop-themed concert, followed by an actual Afrobeats party on Saturday, and on Sunday, a mellowed-down Acoustic event will take place.
Sunday’s Acoustic set will be headlined by none other than the incomparable Ms. Lauryn Hill.
Accra Breweries Limited (ABL) are official beverage sponsors of the Afrobeats Big Weekend Festival 2014.
