First-Ever Food Festival Hits Tema on December 27: A Celebration of Flavor, Culture and Community

Tema is gearing up for what organizers describe as the city’s biggest culinary event yet — the first-ever Tema Food Festival, set for 27 December at the TDC Club House in Community 6.

Billed as a high-energy mix of food, music, and culture, the festival aims to bring the entire city together for a December celebration that showcases Tema’s diverse flavors and the creativity of its food industry.

From seasoned chefs to beloved street-food vendors, grilled favorites to pastries and colourful drinks, organizers promise an experience designed for families, friends, and anyone looking for a memorable holiday hangout.

“This December, we’re bringing something big, something fresh — something Tema has never seen before,” organizers said, noting that the event is meant to spotlight local talent while positioning Tema as a culinary destination in its own right.

Beyond the food, attendees can expect live music, city-wide vibes, and a festive atmosphere that leans into community spirit.

Organizers say the festival is not only for food lovers but also for vendors hoping to expand their reach at a high-visibility end-of-year event. Additional sponsorship slots will be announced in the coming days.

With December already a peak season for large gatherings across Ghana, the Tema Food Festival is poised to carve out its own identity — blending the city’s industrial grit with its growing cultural scene, and giving residents a fresh way to celebrate the holidays.
