Your guide to the best events in Lagos this December

The end of the year in every country is a time for festivals and celebrations, and Nigeria is no exception. Lagos is one of the best cities to be in this December, with a series of cool festivals, awesome events and celebrations to share with friends and family before the New Year.

The end of the year is a time for music, and Lagos has no shortage of awesome music events in the coming month. After a 2018 touring in the UK and America, MayorKun is back for the Mayor of Lagos concert. Taking place on 14th of December at the Balmoral Event Centre, the event will also feature a strong line-up of supporting acts.

However, if you’re more feeling the Christmas spirit, then don’t miss Kaliné’s Live at Christmas concert later that weekend. The singer-songwriter will be rounding off her year of concerts in Lagos at the Terra Kulture Centre by putting her unique soulful style on a traditional Christmas Concert.

Lagos’ biggest New Year’s Eve celebration is back again to celebrate the start of the new year. From the 24th of December to New Year’s Day, One Lagos Fiesta will provide residents as well as tourists visiting the commercial centre of Nigeria with over 480 hours of entertainments, performances and events in a series of venues across Lagos. On New Year’s Eve, One Lagos Fiesta culminates in a huge firework show on Bar Beach, bringing in the New Year in the best way possible – and then we can get you home in the best way possible as well.

Grab an Uber when heading to the various events this December and save on petrol and the frustration of finding parking. It’s safe, reliable and affordable and you can share your ETA and other details with friends and family. You can also share fares with your friends, making it easier to travel in groups and end of the year, stress-free.
