About the village

A Ghanaian Christmas, built at the scale it deserves — Adinkra archways in light, a tree you can see from the Legon road, and eighteen nights of it.

Accra Christmas Village takes the symbols people already know — Adinkrahene, Sankofa, Nkyinkyim — and rebuilds them as illuminated monoliths you walk between. Inside the arch: a food court, a crafts market, a children's park and a grotto, wrapped around a central stage that runs from carols to highlife to gospel night.

It is built for the December crowd — families, students back on campus, and everyone home for the season — and it is designed to be seen at night, from the first light-up on 16 December to the closing set on 2 January.

How does the QR ticket work?

After payment you get an email and an SMS with a QR code. At the gate a scanner reads it and the code is voided on first use — so screenshots can't be reused. Season passes scan once per day.

Can I pay with Mobile Money?

Yes. MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash and AT Money all work at checkout, alongside Visa and Mastercard. Payments run through Paystack.

What's included in a Family Bundle?

Two adults and three children under 12, valid for one day of your choosing. Kids Park access is included; grotto slots are booked separately.

Is the village open on Christmas Day?

Yes, with shortened hours — 4:00 PM to midnight on 25 December. Everything else runs the full 10:00 AM to midnight.

What happens if it rains?

The food court, crafts market and grotto are all covered. Stage sets pause during heavy rain and resume the same evening.

Can I get a refund?

Day passes are transferable but not refundable. Vendor booth deposits are refundable up to 30 November 2026.
