Grammy-winning Afrobeats superstar Wizkid is confirmed as the first headliner for Detty December Fest 2026. He is scheduled to perform on December 18th, marking his return to the Lagos stage six years after releasing his "Made in Lagos" album. The festival, produced by Livespot360, will run for two weeks, from December 18th to December 30th, celebrating music, culture, fashion, and more.
This year's Detty December Fest introduces a significant expansion with a second stage, the Pulse Stage. This new platform is dedicated to showcasing next-generation artists and emerging sounds, complementing the main Festival Stage where Wizkid will perform. This expansion reflects the growing global influence of African music.
Last year's Detty December Fest attracted over 40,000 attendees and generated an estimated ₦396.5 billion in consumer spending in Lagos. The event's success has led to increased governmental support, with Nigeria's Federal Executive Council establishing a presidential task force to coordinate efforts and boost tourism during the festive season.
