Ghanaian football star Thomas Partey has been confirmed as the headline act for the 2025 All Star Festival, scheduled for June 18, at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium.
Partey, one of Ghana’s most celebrated football exports, is expected to draw large crowds and elevate the profile of the annual event. Organised by The BAC Group, this year marks the festival’s fourth edition, continuing its tradition of showcasing Ghanaian football talent and promoting national pride.
The highlight of the festival will be an exhibition match between the Southern Sector Stars and the Northern Sector Stars, offering fans the chance to witness top regional players in action.
Partey will be joined by a roster of notable players including Felix Afena-Gyan, Osman Ibrahim and Sulemana Ibrahim, all expected to thrill fans with their performances.
Local stars such as Kwame Opoku Bayie, Benjamin Asare, Stephen Amankona, Razack Simpson and Kevin Osei Assibey are also set to feature, underscoring the depth of football talent across the country.
Designed to give fans closer access to their football heroes, the All Star Festival is also aimed at inspiring young athletes and fostering unity through sport.
Organisers say Partey’s involvement provides a major boost to the event’s popularity and credibility. The Arsenal midfielder and Black Stars regular is widely seen as a role model for aspiring footballers.
The festival promises to be a celebration of Ghana’s football heritage and a showcase of emerging and established talent alike.
