Ghana Music Awards UK 2023 is scheduled to be launched on Friday, August 4, 2023, at the Labadi Beach Hotel, in Accra, Ghana.

Industry players expected to grace the occasion are executives of the organisers, Alodia Promotions as well as managers of musicians.

The list of potential attendees includes music fans as well as promoters, industry players, and journalists covering the entertainment industry.

The purpose of the award programme is to honour and celebrate the achievements of Ghanaian musicians throughout the year.

The maiden edition of the award was held in 2016 and it has successfully reached the 7th year since its inception. Even though the event takes place in the United Kingdom, it kicks off in Ghana to bring a feel of it to the indigenes and also create awareness of Ghanaians in the diaspora.

The Ghana Music Awards UK opened submissions for artists, producers, and other members of the music industry to submit their work for consideration on April 12, 2023, and ended on May 30.

Last year, Hip-Hop musician Black Sherif swept the night’s prizes, taking home a total of five awards including the biggest category Artiste of the Year. Akwaboah, a Highlife singer and songwriter took home three awards, and Eugy and Headie One won two awards respectively.

Meanwhile, Hiplife legend Reggie Rockstone was honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award, and TiC and Zoro King received special recognition awards.
