Lagos is about to become the epicenter of Afrobeats celebration as Wizkid prepares to headline the inaugural night of Detty December Fest 2026. The superstar will take the stage on Friday, December 18th, marking the first of thirteen consecutive nights of music, culture, and pure vibes in Nigeria’s entertainment capital.
The festival runs from December 18-30, offering a total of ten major shows across two distinct stages. The Detty Festival Stage will host the headline performances—with Wizkid setting the tone on opening night—while the Detty Pulse Stage keeps the energy alive daily with emerging talent, DJ sets, and cultural showcases. For Starboy fans and Afrobeats lovers alike, this presents a rare opportunity to experience one of the genre’s most influential artists in his home territory during the most festive time of year.
Beyond the music, Detty December Fest promises a full entertainment ecosystem. Festival-goers can explore aerial performances, an ice skating rink, the Gen Z Republik experience, a Christmas Grotto, and pop-up market stalls. It’s designed as more than just a concert series—it’s a destination for friends, families, and anyone looking to make their December memorable. Whether you’re there for Wizkid’s opening performance or planning to experience all thirteen days, the festival offers multiple entry points into Lagos’s vibrant end-of-year culture.
