The family and management of legendary highlife musician Daddy Lumba have announced a last-minute change to the venue for his one-week observance.
The event, still scheduled for Saturday, August 30, 2025, has been relocated to Black Star Square (Independence Square) in Accra, where a candlelight vigil held in his honour also took place weeks ago.
Originally planned for the University of Ghana Stadium, the observance was shifted following a formal reminder from the La State Council.
At a press conference today in Accra, council representatives noted that effective Monday, August 11, 2025, noise-making in the La Traditional Area is banned until September 5, 2025.
Because the original venue fell within that jurisdiction, the officials requested that the family consider postponing or relocating the event.

Rather than postpone, Daddy Lumba’s team opted for relocation. In a public statement, they assured fans that the date remains unchanged but noted the change in venue.
“We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause and appreciate your understanding,” the announcement read.
