5ive Tour Nigeria is bringing the energy back home as Davido returns after months of thrilling fans across North America. This six-city celebration is set to light up the country from October to December 2025, delivering unforgettable performances and a true celebration of Afrobeats excellence.
The Grammy-nominated star announced the Nigerian leg of his 5ive Tour, marking his long-awaited return to performing across the country. For many fans, it’s more than just another set of shows. It feels like a full-circle moment for one of Afrobeats’ biggest global ambassadors.
The tour kicks off on October 26 in Akwa Ibom, before making stops in Adamawa (Oct 29), Enugu (Nov 1), Ibadan (Nov 9), Abuja (Dec 14), and finally Lagos (Dec 25), where Davido will close out the year. Each city stop marks a return to the kind of massive, stadium-filled performances that have defined his career.
For an artist who has performed everywhere from Madison Square Garden to the O2 Arena, this Nigerian leg feels personal. Davido’s excitement was clear in his announcement post, serving as a reminder that no matter how global Afrobeats gets, its heartbeat still lives at home.
I'm blessed to perform all around the world, and everywhere I go-Nigeria goes with me. But this time… I'm bringing it HOME.
