The family-oriented entertainment show dubbed “Bigoo Family Dance” took off in full force last Thursday with a massive live media launch at Adesa we, Kanda in Accra.
A statement issued by Media General and copied to the Ghana News Agency said the competition would require families of four to present a curated dance routine with various genres of music and to incorporate dances from all over the world,
This would provide a chance to win an all-expenses paid family trip abroad, cash prizes and various products from the sponsors.
It said the idea for the family dance show, according to the head of events for Twellium Industries Limited, Kendrick Yehowada, came about at a family party when the last bottle of Bigoo beverage was being contested for through a dance competition.
It stated that in the end, an elderly lady from one family won the competition and the last bottle of Bigoo by displaying a dance from the old days which she referred to as “mezzop”.
The statement said the competition would feature Ghanaian based international dancer – Dancegod Lloyd, popstar EAZZY and former Ghana dance champion Adjetey Sowah as the in-studio judges.
It said the public would however have the chance to also decide which family wins the ultimate prize by voting for their favorites.
Mr Francis Doku, the General Manager of 3Group, assured viewers of the commitment of TV3 and Twellium Industries to not only bring unrivalled family entertainment to the doorsteps of Ghanaians but also to endeavor to fully engage viewers by making the viewing public part of the show as much as possible.
