The Hogbetsotso festival (pronounced Hogbechocho)[1] is celebrated by the chiefs and people of Anlo in the Volta Region of Ghana.[2] Some major Anlo towns include Anloga (capital), Keta, Kedzi, Vodza, Whuti, Srogboe, Tegbi, Dzita, Abor, Anlo Afiadenyigba, Anyako, Konu, Alakple, Atsito , Atiavi, Deʋegodo, Atorkor, Tsiame and many other villages. The festival is celebrated annually on the first Saturday in the month of November at Anloga, the customary and ritual capital of the Anlo state.[2][3] The name of the festival is derived from the Ewe language and translates as the festival of exodus.[4] or "coming from Hogbe (Notsie)".[5] The celebration of the festival was instituted about four decades ago.[5]
