Grand Opening: Gibako Guest House & Bar Brings Culture, Music, and World-Class Hospitality to Bolgatanga

 


The Upper East Region is set to witness a historic celebration of enterprise, heritage, and Northern hospitality. On Saturday, 22nd August 2026, Gibako Guest House & Bar will officially open its doors to the public in Yikene, Bolgatanga.

More than just a premier hospitality destination, Gibako Guest House & Bar represents the homecoming and legacy of internationally celebrated Ghanaian musician, dancer, and cultural ambassador Rebecca Atanga.

A Vision Born from Heritage and Global Experience

For over three decades, Rebecca Atanga has carried the vibrant rhythm of the kologo and the traditions of Northern Ghana across European stages—from Amsterdam’s Paradiso and Melkweg to historic performances, including a special tribute to former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 2004.

Now, that international journey comes full circle with the establishment of Gibako Guest House & Bar. Envisioned as a bridge between culture, sustainable tourism, and regional development, Gibako provides a space where travelers, creatives, and locals can experience the authentic warmth of the Upper East in comfort and serenity.
