From the 21st, the music giants come out to play.
Flytime continues its legacy as a key architect of the Afrobeats movement, providing artists with world-class infrastructure and seamless production that elevates performances and strengthens fan connections. This foundation allows African stars to perform at home, offering audiences safe venues to experience their artists that have become worldwide phenomena live at home.
Speaking on the December slate, Flytime CEO/Founder Cecil Hammond says:
“We started Flytime in 2004 with the core belief that African artists are global superstars. We are thankful that the show’s sponsors, partners and guests have been with us as we fulfilled this vision. We’re happy to continue to provide a space where Nigerians and fans from all over the world can come to Lagos and enjoy their favorite artists in a safe environment with high production standards. Our December slate has never been more exciting; there is something for everyone.”
Rhythm Unplugged, founded in 2004, is West Africa’s longest-running concert series, with over 70 shows hosted throughout Nigeria. Host cities have included Lagos, Benin, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Jos, and Ibadan. Rhythm Unplugged has established itself as a cornerstone of the Nigerian music landscape. The list of artists the concert has platformed is staggering and includes Burna Boy, Davido, Wizkid, Rema, Adekunle Gold, Simi, Bovi, Gunna, T and Neyo.
Building on the foundation laid by Rhythm Unplugged, Flytime Fest was launched in 2017 in order to expand and deepen Flytime ‘ offerings. Flytime Fest is Nigeria’s first-ever multi-day music indoor festival. Its history includes Asake, Tems, Davido, Tiwa Savage, Olamide, Ayra Starr, Megan Thee Stallion, Boyz II Men, Bobby Brown and Bell Biv DeVoe amongst many more star artists.
While Flytime’s legacy includes many firsts, those firsts are not solely about being first to market, they are about believing in Nigeria’s music and entertainment industry before most did, and playing a part in laying the groundwork upon which many industry actors have built. Speaking on this, Flytime Promotions COO Keke Hammond says:
“We’re grateful to be back for another year, creating spaces that bring joy, connection, and opportunity to artists, fans, and the creative industry as a whole. Building infrastructure is deep work that comes with a lot of sacrifice. We’re 21 this year, that’s over two decades of being on a journey of building and expanding our homegrown music industry. We’re set to expand globally beginning in 2026, but for now, the focus is giving Lagos a December they won’t forget.”
