They say the early bird catches the worm. But did you know it also catches a free drink, pre-show DJ sets, and a whole lot more?
If you’re one of the lucky Global Citizens who earned a ticket to Global Citizen Festival: Accra, then the good news isn’t over yet. We’ve got even more treats in store for the early birds who arrive at Black Star Square stage by 2:30 p.m. on Saturday Sept. 24.
This year’s festival in Accra is part of our End Extreme Poverty NOW campaign, an urgent call that is demanding urgent action from world leaders to do more than they’ve ever done before.
Here are five big reasons you should definitely arrive early for Global Citizen Festival: Accra — and remember, you will need a ticket to enter. Ain’t no party like a pre-show party!
1. Once-in-a-Lifetime Chance to See Stonebwoy Perform in Black Star Square
