The organisers of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards, in a build-up to this year’s awards ceremony scheduled for 25th and 26th June, will be engaging students on music matters.
Dubbed ‘VGMA IN SCHOOLS, this platform has been created to bridge the gap between the music industry and academia.
The project will work with schools, offering students interested in a career in music, an opportunity to dialogue with professionals.
The aim is to help students in music to start right, point out the role of education in a music career, and expose students to the basics of showbusiness.
As part of its activities, there shall also be the VGMA Xperience Concert, a live-performed music show of artists selected from a cross-section of VGMA nominees. The invitation-only event is slated for Saturday 12th June, will be aired at 9 pm on TV3, and streamed on VGMA pages on Facebook & YouTube.
On the 21st of June, Ghana will for the first time join over 130 countries and 1000+ cities to celebrate what the French call Fete de la Musique, a.k.a. World Music Day. The VGMA Music Summit will be marked with national dialogue, a master class, and the honoring of unsung heroes of the music ecosystem.
The VGMA22 experience will climax with a two-day show on Friday 25th and Saturday 26th of June. Each day will project the glitz and glam of the red-carpet reception, awards ceremony for deserving artists, and eclectic live performances from the best acts Ghana has to offer.
The events will show nationwide on TV3, across Africa on Akwaaba Magic, Rok TV, and Soundcity on DSTV, and across the world on MTVBase, Vodafone, and VGMA Social Media Pages.
