A gathering at the palace of Karakyle Kwasi Bumangama II who welcomed hundreds. The festival marks the beginning of the harvest and the way traditional leaders distributed among the people to prevent hunger. It was lead by the clergy of the area including prayers, scripture and a sermon. Dancing and singing, drumming, and choirs singing were part of the program. This scene is the centre of the palace with buildings with housing forming a court yard.
