Why We Are Raising Funds

EBOFEST 2026 is more than a festival — it is a living tribute. We believe in celebrating our legends and heroes whilst they are still with us, not waiting until they are gone.

For over seven decades, Ebo Taylor has given his music, his creativity, and his spirit to the world — shaping Highlife, inspiring generations, and placing Ghana on the global musical map. Now, as he turns 90 and retires from the stage, it is time for the world to give back to him.

This festival is our way of honoring his journey, bringing together legends and new voices, and creating a space where he can feel the love and appreciation of the people whose lives his music has touched. At the same time, it sets a powerful example of how Africa can honor its heroes in life, not only in memory.

Your contribution will help us:

• Celebrate Ebo Taylor’s lifetime legacy with the dignity and scale it deserves.

• Unite iconic and emerging artists on one historic stage.

• Empower local communities, vendors, and youth through active participation.

• Showcase Ghana and Africa’s creative spirit to the world.

• Document and preserve this milestone for generations to come.

When you give, you’re not just supporting a festival — you’re helping the world give back to a legend who has already given so much.
