Ghana’s Independence Day is celebrated every year on March 6. It is a public holiday for the citizens of the West African country and also widely celebrated among Ghanaians living abroad.
If March 6 falls on a weekend, the following Monday will also be observed as a holiday. Ghana Independence Day is also known as Ghana National Day.
The celebrations commemorate Ghana’s independence from the United Kingdom in 1957.
