Last checked October 20, 2026 against its sources. Before anything appears here, a separate check fetches each source again and confirms that every date we show is in the quoted text.
Notes from the last check
A Ghana News Agency report quoting a Gbewaa Palace statement says the 2025 Fire Festival (Bugum Chugu) was cancelled in Tamale and its environs, with a promise to resume in future. No official site, no operating evidence for Tamale in the current cycle, and no next-edition dates were found, so the entry is flagged possibly_defunct (suspended in Tamale) and needs follow-up.
