    Akwasidae at Manhyia

    1 Jan – 31 Dec · usuallyMajor festival

    Every forty to forty-two days the Asantehene holds court at Manhyia Palace: horns, drummers, chiefs in kente and a queue of subjects. It falls on a Sunday nine times a year, so any month has one, but the date is fixed by the Akan calendar rather than ours. Source ↗

  • Season

    Harmattan

    1 Dec – 15 Feb · usuallyDust season

    Inland Ashanti gets the harmattan properly, not the coastal version: cold mornings, cracked skin, a red haze over the city and dust through every open window on the road to Accra. Source ↗
