The 2023 MTN Ashantifest community soccer competition is all, but set for its grand launch tomorrow, Wednesday [June 14] at the Kaase Office in Kumasi at exactly 10am.

The annual Ashantifest was initiated by MTN to engage its cherished existing and potential subscribers in the Ashanti Region due to the absence of any markedly big festival cutting across macro /micro levels across all segments within identified communities.

Some of the activities marking the Ashantifest include walks, market storms, product and service activations, seminars, concerts and football matches for either the communities or MTN FA Cup match when it’s within the Ashantifest period, media engagements, CSR activities.
