Ghana Announces New Tourism and Cultural Hub to be Opened Next Year in New York
Hon. Dr. Ibrahim Mohammed Awal, Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture for Ghana, has announced the official opening of a Tourism and cultural hub in New York to serve the North American Market and help promote tourism to Ghana. He made the announcement at the Destination Ghana Networking event that was held in New York City on 18th September 2022.
The event, a collaboration of the Ministry of Tourism, Arts, and Culture, the Ghana Tourism Authority and the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre brought together business leaders and leaders of the African diaspora community to network and learn more about the opportunities for tourism, business and investment in Ghana. The event also served as an opportunity to engage with the community and learn more about what their needs were when travelling to Ghana.
“The U.S. is very important to Ghana in areas of culture and tourism,” Hon. Awal said. The United States accounts for the largest number of tourists that visit Ghana annually, making them a significant place of marketing to Ghana. “We’re going to open a Cultural and Tourism office in New York next year to serve as the tool and vehicle to drive culture and tourism between the U.S. and Ghana. By March next year it will happen and I can assure you that it will help facilitate all the issues of our tourism and
culture.”
Members of the Ghanaian delegation included, Akwasi Agyeman, CEO of Ghana Tourism Authority, Yofi Grant, CEO, Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, Ekow Sampson, Deputy CEO, Ghana Tourism Authority, Annabelle McKenzie, Director, Beyond the Return Secretariat.
The event was graced by Rocky Dawuni, Grammy-nominated artist, Barkue Tubman, Chief of Staff of Essence Communications, Jerry Adinkra , Cultural and Tourism Ambassador and members of the Ghanaian and historical diaspora community. The event was well attended and also featured cultural performances.
“We are building a Ghana brand that will be a hub for tourism and culture in West Africa. We need your support to build that Ghana brand and drive a lot of tourists from New York to Ghana every year,” Hon Awal said. The Consul General of the Ghana Mission in New York , Ambassador Atta Boafo assured the gathering that the processes of obtaining visas would be simplified and also addressed that Ghanaians abroad could use both their Ghana passport and U.S. passport when travelling to and from Ghana with ease.
Akwasi Agyeman, CEO of the Ghana Tourism Authority highlighted the activities lined up for December in Ghana this year which includes Afrochella, Taste of Ghana, AfroNation, Little Havanna, Detty Rave amongst others and invited the African Diaspora to be part of it.
The minister also assured everyone that important tourist sites are undergoing renovations and will be modernized to create a better travel experience. Earlier this year the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park and Museum were closed for renovations. Hon. Awal said it will reopen next year. “We will have a fully furnished and modernized Kwame Nkrumah
Memorial Park by March of next year, ” he said. “The museum is being expanded and refurbished.”
The minister’s announcement was part of the Destination Ghana Networking event in New York. The Destination Ghana campaign was launched earlier this year in London, U.K. to promote Ghana as a tourism destination worldwide. Hinged on the fact that Ghana is at the centre of the world, the campaign builds off the strength of Ghana’s Year of Return campaign which encouraged the diaspora to come to Ghana and helped boost international arrivals to over 1.1 million in 2019.

The 3-day (26 – 28 November) creators festival began with a tour for creators and influencers. Before the tour started there was a special meet and greet session amongst creators, the media, and Mark Angel. The Accra City tour with creators was a fun filled and an exciting road safari expedition with the Ghana Tourism newly launched double decker buses for experiencing Ghana. Creators were driven through Ako Adjei Interchange, Ring Road Central, Kwame Nkrumah Interchange, Accra Digital Center, Boxing Emporium, James Town, Light house, Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, Independence Square and ended at ATIC. Since the bus was filled with content creators, all you could see is selfie sticks, tripods, cameras, and smart phones in the air just for them to catch a glimpse of the amazing sceneries in Accra Ghana.
The second day which was regarded as the main day of the festival, took place at Zeepay head office in cantonment from 9am to 5pm. The activities scheduled included keynote presentations, one on ones, panel discussion sessions, master class, brainstorming and virtual reality experience. Despite being a full day’s summit, the Saturday event was engaging, informative yet devoid of boredom; at one point some participants didn’t want it to end. The master class was the most insightful session as both creators and potential content creators were able to undergo practical class to learn subjects like YouTube content monetization, Seo and algorithm growth and basic video editing techniques. The class was led by Rick Aqua, Mordin Bi Taiwan and Cyber Reviews.

Other Speakers who took on the panel discussion included MzGee, George Britton, Kwadwo Sheldon, Ivy Prosper and Lakeisha Ford. The summit ended with an exclusive influential party hosted by Zeepay Ghana.
The creators Awards and concert at Accra City Hotel on Sunday 28th November climaxed the whole Zeepay YT Creators festival. It was a night of glamour, fashion, and excellence.

Some of the content creators who took home a golden plaque included Jessica Opare – Saforo who won YT Creator of the Year, Ivy Prosper as Travel Creator, Mark Angel and Wode Maya winning the Zeepay YT African Influencer of the year and the YT Diaspora Creator of the year respectively. The event is an Entamoty Media Initiative in partnership with ICS Africa Limited and support from Zeepay Ghana.
According to the Creative Director of the Zeepay YT Creators Festival, Barimah Amoaning Samuel, the team’s goal is to establish a hub of content creators in Ghana where young people who wish to pursue digital content creation will be trained and equipped with skills and given incentives like cameras, laptops, smart phones, and MiFis to assist in their everyday creation. He appealed to both individuals and private organizations who wish to support this project to reach out to Entamoty Media, because he believes that equipping young people with digital skills is one of the ways of reducing the unemployment rates amongst the youth in Africa. Other notable partners include Mentamusic, Avance Media, Accra city hotel, Africa World Airlines, Beyond the Return, Blogging Ghana, Ghana Gold Expo, Twellium Ghana, Edward Asare, Oasis Magazine Africa, Wiflix Ghana, Music Africa, pulse Ghana, WatsUp Tv, Digital Times Africa, Ghana.
