Over the weekend, thousands of fans flocked to the site for ShattaFest, a huge celebration featuring Ghana’s dancehall king, Shatta Wale, bringing the capital city to life.
The much awaited “ShattaFest 2025 x Shattabration: The King Calls” event exceeded all expectations, attracting music fans from all around the nation and abroad for a spectacular evening of thrilling performances.
The audience exploded in enthusiasm as soon as Shatta Wale took the stage, joining in on hit after hit, including “On God,” “Kakai,” and “Melissa.”
The self-described “1Don” demonstrated why he is still one of Africa’s most fascinating entertainers with the help of a spectacular stage setup.

Some of the biggest names in the industry, including Wendy Shay, Medikal, Tinny, JZyNo, Jupitar, and Empress Gifty, provided supporting performances at the event, which was planned to honour Shatta Wale’s amazing career and influence on Ghana’s music industry.
Kwame Yogot, Captan, Rashid Metal, Togyal Renner, Mandem Yopic, and Chuku Lion are among the others.
Although each performer brought a unique flavour to the evening, it was evident that the main reason fans attended was to witness the magic of the Shatta Movement.
The scenario resembled a global music festival, complete with tight security, an electrifying mood, and a sea of supporters yelling “SM4Lyf” and waving SM-branded flags.
ShattaFest has solidified its position as one of Ghana’s largest yearly music events thanks to the enormous turnout and top-notch production, which is evidence of the Shatta Movement’s unstoppable power and the fervour of its devoted supporters.
With assistance from Shaxi and Charterhouse, MoMo Fest (Mobile Money Ghana Limited) is the driving force behind ShattaFest 2025.
