Afro Fest 2024 exceeds expectation

After enduring weeks of demanding preparation, students of the Department of Hospitality and Tourism Management of the University of Cape Coast have delivered unforgettable performances at the Afro Fest 2024.

The much-hyped event, a night of fun, entertainment and vivacity, was aimed at promoting and preserving African heritage and cultural diversity.

It also witnessed energetic live performances from some selected student artistes who performed most of the popular chart-topping hit songs, without breaks, to entertain attendees.

At a point, the creative skills, stagecraft and style of performing by the students were well acknowledged by the audience who got up on their feet in sheer excitement. Student comedians also thrilled comedy lovers with rib-cracking jokes.

After the event, some of the attendees shared their impressions with reporters, praising the performance and the message of the concert. 

“What a night! The students from the Hospitality have done very well. They brought the venue down with their energies and talents. I loved every minute of it,” Master Samuel Frimpong, a level 500 Medical Student, said.

Miss. Cindy Agyekum, a level 300 student of Communication Studies, commented, “This was more than a concert. It was a celebration of Africa, of music, of comedy. They made me proud to be African."
