The 2020 edition of the annual 3 Music Awards will have no patrons present at the venue during the show.
3Media Network, organizers of the 3Music Awards, has announced that the event will be streamed online on April 24.
The 3 Music Awards which was scheduled for the last Saturday in March was postponed indefinitely following the outbreak of coronavirus in Ghana.
With the announcement of a new date, organizers say no spectators will be entertained.
This move is in line with government’s ban on social gatherings and a lockdown in some parts of the country.
The event will come live from a location in Ghana’s capital, Accra, to audiences on Joy Prime, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram and other web platforms.
“In the past few weeks following the postponement of our annual event and the Fan Festival, we have been brainstorming and exploring possible ways of making the event happen if the situation persists,” Sadiq Abdulai Abu, CEO, 3Media Networks said.
“Given the current lockdown and the fact we are dealing with a fluid situation with no certain end in sight, the team has had to consider one of the options we brainstormed about to ensure that deserving winners for 3Music Awards 2020 are announced as well as wrap our timelines for 2019/2020 and begin preparing for next year”, be added.
2020 3Music Awards will feature only three physical performance blocks while others will come through virtually.
Abdulai Abu added that proceeds from the final week of voting will be donated to Ghana’s efforts at fighting the COVID-19 outbreak.
