The second edition of the Democracy Cup won’t take place at the Accra Sports Stadium as originally planned, following a change in plans communicated by Ghana’s House of Parliament on Thursday, August 21

The event that is headlined by a match between city rivals Accra Hearts of Oak and Accra Great Olympics was set to take place at the Accra Stadium on August 29, but has been moved to the University of Ghana Stadium on September 5.

The Democracy Cup is an event championed by Ghana’s Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, to promote the tenets of democracy in the country, and the first edition took place last year, with Kumasi Asante Kotoko beating Hearts of Oak to win the title.

“The decision to reschedule was made after careful consideration to ensure optimal facilities, security and a premier experience for spectators, players and supporters nationwide.”

“The University of Ghana Sports Stadium offers premier amenities and a capacious environment to host this high-profile contest in the spirit of fair play, sportsmanship, and peaceful civic engagement”, a portion of the statement read.

The Democracy Cup is an annual one-off football match organised by the Parliament of Ghana to promote civic engagement, national unity, and democratic values.

Launched in 2024 to mark 30 years of parliamentary democracy, the competition features prominent Ghanaian football clubs, with Asante Kotoko winning the first edition against Hearts of Oak. A curtain-raiser match between Members of Parliament and former Black Stars players also takes place.
