Years after having her first concert in Ghana, Ghana’s biggest pop star, Amaarae, had her long-awaited homecoming on the 6th of January at the Underbridge Annex with her Blackout Concert.
In collaboration with iMullar Sound System, Amaarae closed out her tour for her latest album, Blackstar, with the homecoming experience, showcasing an event of global standard.
Following an announcement of the event schedule via her Twitter account, doubters were proved wrong as the show started on time and ended on time despite some patrons arriving later than the start time.

The intentionality behind the curation of her sets, the quality of performance and overall show production was exemplary.
It was an audience of community, lovers of her music and creative enthusiasts all shrouded in their all-black attire at the venue having the time of their lives. From the curated DJ sets by iMullar to Amaarae performances, the crowd stayed alive through it all.
With guest appearances from Sarkodie, Gyakie, FTY and “Asaakaa Boys”, fans were left with joy in their hearts and memories of an experience like none they’ve had before.
The Blackout Concert by Amaarae was in collaboration with iMullar Sound System and partners Access Bank, Ecobank Ghana, Hollard Insurance, Enterprise Insurance, Chale Ticketing App, and Republic Bar.
The January 6, 2026, event will go down as a benchmark for Ghanaian artists when it comes to live event production and organisation, a tastemaker for what attendees deserve and a serious contender in filling a long-standing gap in Ghana’s live event industry.
