Beyond the excitement of music performance, the concert was a beautiful display of rich African culture. About 99 percent of patrons of the event had a touch of African wear or fashion. Some wore outfit in styles made with 'kente' and other local fabrics.

Some of the musicians who performed during the night were also not left out of the African fashion.

Stefflon Don

The festival was the first of its kind and was dubbed the 'Kente Party'.

The TINA Festival was put together by Fuse ODG, the UK- based Ghanaian Afrobeat musician who is known around the world for actively promoting African culture. It was to amplify the objective of projecting African values through the arts.
