Wizkid Announces Lagos, Abuja Concerts for December

Wizkid Announces Lagos, Abuja Concerts for December

Afrobeats star Wizkid is set to perform in Abuja and Lagos this December, with two concert appearances scheduled just five days apart.

The singer, whose real name is Ayodeji Balogun, is billed to perform at the Live Out Loud Music Festival at Eagle Square, Abuja, on December 13. He is also scheduled to headline the opening night of Detty December Fest in Lagos on December 18.

The announcements put the Grammy-winning musician on the lineup for two major events during Nigeria’s busy festive season, when concerts and live performances attract fans from across the country and abroad.

For Wizkid’s fans, the two dates offer separate opportunities to see him perform without having to wait for a single Lagos show.

Wizkid Set for Abuja Festival

Wizkid’s first scheduled appearance is at the Live Out Loud Music Festival in Abuja on Sunday, December 13.

The event is listed for Eagle Square, with published details indicating that the programme is expected to begin at 5 p.m. and gates will open an hour earlier.

The Abuja show gives fans in the Federal Capital Territory and nearby states a chance to attend a major performance without travelling to Lagos, which traditionally hosts a large share of Nigeria’s December entertainment events.

Further details about supporting performers and the full running order should be confirmed through the festival’s official announcements as the date approaches.

Lagos Concert Scheduled for December 18

Five days later, Wizkid is expected in Lagos for the opening night of Detty December Fest.

The festival is scheduled to run from December 18 to December 30, with its programme built around music and other entertainment activities. Wizkid has been announced as the headline act for the opening concert.

His appearance adds another major name to Lagos’ December concert calendar, a period when the city welcomes returning Nigerians, international visitors and music fans travelling for live shows.

While the headline announcement has drawn attention to the opening night, details of the wider programme should be checked against updates from the organisers. Any additional performers or changes to the schedule should not be treated as confirmed until officially announced.

Two Cities on Wizkid’s December Schedule

The Abuja and Lagos dates give Wizkid two separate stops in Nigeria during the festive period. The first is on December 13, followed by the Lagos performance on December 18.

The shows are organised as part of different events, so fans should check the relevant organisers’ announcements for ticket information, venue access and any updates to performance times.

The two dates do not confirm that Wizkid has other Nigerian concerts planned for December. Any additional appearances should be treated as unconfirmed unless announced by the singer or the organisers.

Wizkid has built an international following through his music and live performances, while remaining a major draw for audiences at home. His scheduled appearances place him in two of Nigeria’s key cities during a period when demand for concerts typically rises.

For now, fans have two dates to work with: December 13 in Abuja and December 18 in Lagos. Those planning to attend should keep an eye on official event updates for the latest information on the programme and arrangements.
