The Western Gospel Awards is marking its fifth anniversary with a major headline act, the revered gospel veteran Amy Newman. The fifth edition of the awards comes off on 20th December, 2025 at the Western Serene Atlantic Hotel in Takoradi.
The organisers have confirmed that the celebrated minstrel will not only attend the ceremony but also deliver one of the evening’s most anticipated performances.
Amy Newman, widely admired for her powerful voice and deeply spiritual ministry, has been a towering figure in Ghana’s gospel music scene for decades. Her songs and influence have shaped the industry and inspired multiple generations of believers across the country.
According to Prolific GH, the organisers, Newman’s presence brings extraordinary significance to the milestone celebration, as the awards scheme reflects on five years of promoting gospel excellence within the Western Region and beyond.
“She is a national treasure whose artistic and spiritual contribution to Ghana’s gospel fraternity remains profound,” the planning committee noted, expressing confidence that her performance will create a unique worship experience for patrons.
This year’s anniversary edition is expected to combine celebration and reflection, as the awards continue to honour artistes, industry stakeholders, and humanitarian efforts that uplift lives through gospel music. Organisers say the 2025 event will spotlight personalities making a meaningful social impact while reinforcing the transformative power of gospel ministry.
With anticipation building among gospel lovers nationwide, the fifth edition of the Western Gospel Awards promises an unforgettable night, one made even more special by the grace and ministry of the iconic Amy Newman.
