The Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA), under the coordination of the International Affairs Secretariat, is pleased to announce the opening of the call for event proposals for the 2025 edition of December in GH. This premier tourism initiative continues to position Ghana as the ultimate destination for culture, heritage, entertainment, and reconnection.
December in GH is a month-long celebration that takes place during the festive holiday season, showcasing a curated calendar of events across music, fashion, art, culture, and nightlife. The campaign attracts thousands of visitors from around the world, including the Ghanaian diaspora returning home and the historical diaspora reconnecting with their African roots.
Speaking on the announcement, Maame Efua Houadjeto (Mrs.), CEO of the Ghana Tourism Authority, said, “December in GH is more than a festive celebration, it is a movement that showcases Ghana’s vibrant spirit to the world.
As we embrace the Black Star Experience, we are setting the stage for our biggest December season yet, and we look forward to innovative events that will elevate Ghana’s place as a leading destination for culture, entertainment, and heritage tourism.”
The GTA invites event organizers, promoters, and cultural curators to submit proposals for events scheduled between December 1, 2025, and January 3, 2026. The events should contribute to a vibrant and diverse calendar of activities across the country. Interested parties must submit their detailed event proposals by Monday, June 16, 2025.
All submissions will be reviewed by a selection committee to ensure the highest quality of events that reflect Ghana’s creativity, hospitality, and global appeal. Selected events will be featured on the official December in GH 2025 calendar, which will be formally launched later this year.
Annabelle McKenzie, Director of the International Affairs Secretariat, added that the call for proposals marks a pivotal moment in the planning process. “We’re excited to work with event organizers who bring fresh ideas and energy to December in GH. It’s a time when the global diaspora comes home to experience Ghana, its culture, warmth, entertainment, food, and welcoming spirit. This year will have an even greater impact as we invite the world to be part of the Black Star Experience during one of the most vibrant times of the year.”
