The 13th edition of the African Games is expected to be held in 3 cities in Ghana in the year 2023 on dates yet to be confirmed.
It would be the second time in history that the games would be decentralized in a process that started in the previous edition held in Morocco.
Due to this three cities in the country were chosen for these functions Accra, Kumasi, and Cape Coast.
The LOC of the All African Games with the Ministry and the Ghana Football Association are now ready to launch the Official Logo, Mascot and website for the event.
The launch has been scheduled for December 16, 2021, at the Grand Arena, Accra International Conference Center.
Ghana’s Ministry of Youth and Sports (MOYS) had run a competition in conjunction with the Ghana 2023 Project Team to choose a logo and mascot for a Games expected to attract nearly 5,000 athletes from more than 50 countries.
When it launched the competition earlier in 2020, the MOYS announced it was looking for a logo and a mascot that uses “parts of our heritage, our traditional/cultural symbols and flora, as well as fauna to epitomise our collective dreams and aspirations as a people, first as Ghanaians (HOST NATION) and then as Africans.”
Ghana was awarded the Games for the first time in October 2018.
For the last African Games, held in Morocco last year, the logo was a door with Moroccan mosaic, while the mascot was an Atlas lion.
