The 16th Ghana International Fair was launched on Thursday January 19, 2012 at the Trade Fair, La with the announcement that an entertainment village is been planned for this year’s edition.
Speaking at the launch, Mr. Ebenezer Okpoti Koney, acting CEO of the Ghana Trade Fair Company (GTFC) said the GTFC would use entertainment as a significant tool to reignite that passion one used to have about attending trade fairs in years back. “We are bringing back those reasons why people from all corners of the country spent at least some time at the Trade Fair when it was open”, he said.
According to him: “we are working with various entertainment and marketing agencies headed by Phamous Media Group to create a special Entertainment Village where there will be 24-7 entertainment activities including music concerts, movie screenings, Live International football matches, fashion shows, comedy shows, celebrity red carpet shows and networking etc, happening throughout the fair season”.
