In the heart of Italy, the whispers of an imminent cancellation of an anticipated concert fluttered like misguided butterflies. These whispers have been vehemently silenced by the management of the luminary Ghanaian gospel enchantress, Celestine Donkor, assuring the world that the musical celebration remains undeterred.
The concert, christened Exceptional Gratitude, is set to unfurl its wings in the grand Teatro Cittadella in Modena, Italy, on the 28th of June, 2025. The erroneous information, a fraudulent rendition of the event’s flyers bearing the stamp of “cancelled,” was indeed, a cunning fox in the vineyard of this sacred occasion.
Kofi Donkor, the guardian of Celestine’s celestial voice, denounced these ill-intentioned rumours. “This is a malevolent ploy by unseen hands eager to shroud our celebration in darkness,” he declared. He beseeches the world, particularly the loyal adherents of Celestine Donkor in Germany and Italy, to dismiss these rumours and let their hearts beat in rhythm with the upcoming concert.
The event, a creation of TAG Events, marks the second incarnation of the Exceptional Gratitude worship concert series. Donkor, the radiant star of the evening, will share the stage with a constellation of guest ministers. Among them, McDaniels OB from Düsseldorf, Germany, Lizzy and Gloria Sarfowaa from Sassuolo, Italy, and Minister Felix from Modena, Italy.
The grandeur of the event will begin to unfold at 15:00 DST with a red carpet procession, leading to the main spectacle at 16:00 DST. Tickets to this divine assembly are available at a pre-sale rate of €25 and €30 at the entrance, with a special family package of €50 for two adults blessed with two little angels under ten.
Celestine Donkor, a jewel in Ghana’s gospel music diadem, is revered for her celestial vocal prowess and her transformative worship ministry. The creator of the Celestial Praise concert and the author of numerous gospel symphonies like ‘Agbebolo’ (Bread of Life), ‘Final Say’, and ‘Only You’, Donkor has woven threads of hope, faith, and gratitude, traversing Africa, Europe, and North America with her harmonious tapestry.
The Exceptional Gratitude concert is a beacon, set to attract gospel music aficionados from different corners of Europe. It promises a grand reunion of the Ghanaian and wider African diaspora communities in Italy and neighbouring countries, under the resplendent banner of music and shared heritage.
