Professional and creative industry events in Accra

Overview

Accra, Ghana, is set to host significant regional gatherings in late 2026 focused on professional development and the creative economy.

In October, the HR Focus Africa Conference was announced for October 16 at the Labadi Beach Hotel. Under the theme “Inclusive Leadership & HR Strategies for Diverse Workforce: A Regional Perspective,” the event aims to address workforce transformations, including the impact of AI and legislative developments like the Affirmative Action (Gender Equity) Act, 2024.

Following this, the second edition of Creatives Connect Afrika is scheduled for November 30 to December 3 at the Alisa Hotel North Ridge. Convened by the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Secretariat, this forum focuses on “Entertainment-Led Tourism: Transforming Pan-African Creative Wealth into Global Economic Influence,” seeking to link music, film, and fashion industries with tourism growth and intra-African trade.
