The Mavin Records powerhouse is the main event for this year’s festival, one of Ghana’s most iconic and largest beach gatherings, taking place today at the La Palm Beach Hotel.
Ayra Starr’s arrival is a significant moment, underscoring the musical synergy from Nigeria straight to Ghana. As one of the undisputed leaders of the new Afrobeats wave, her headline slot at Ghana’s premier beach festival is a testament to her pan-African dominance.
The Tidal Rave Music Festival is a full-day cultural phenomenon. It marks a pilgrimage for Ghanaian youth and music lovers, blending high fashion, beach culture, and a marathon of music from the continent’s biggest stars. Ayra Starr’s inclusion as the headline act underscores the festival’s commitment to booking artists at the absolute peak of their powers.
With a string of global hits from “Rush” and “Bloody Samaritan” to her recent chart-climber “Who’s Dat Girl,” the 22-year-old “Sabi Girl” is expected to deliver a high-energy, vocally stunning, and meticulously choreographed performance.
As the sun sets over La Palm Beach, all eyes will be on Ayra Starr. Her performance tonight is not just the highlight of the festival but a celebration of the unified, border-blurring power of West African music.
