Wizkid - Made in Lagos Tour, London
A history making run of sold out shows at The O2 that turned the "Made in Lagos" era into one of the defining chapters of global Afrobeats.
In late 2021, Wizkid brought his "Made in Lagos" tour to London for a series of headline dates at The O2 Arena.
The first show sold out in just 12 minutes, with additional nights added and quickly filled, confirming the album and the artist as global cultural forces.
Across the run, Wizkid turned the arena into a Lagos inspired experience, blending live band arrangements, arena level production and intimate crowd energy.
Special guests including Chris Brown and Skepta joined him on stage, with one of the performances later broadcast worldwide on StarBoy TV on YouTube.
The London dates have since become a reference point for Afrobeats staging and touring in Europe and remain some of the most talked about shows of Wizkid's career.
