Dave to Headline First Show in Lagos, October 2026

British-Nigerian rapper Dave announced his first-ever headline show in Lagos, Nigeria, set for October 16-17, 2026. The announcement was made via his official social media page on Tuesday, marking a significant moment for his fanbase in Nigeria.

Dave, whose real name is David Orobosa Omoregie, has deep ties to the country, as his father was deported to Nigeria in 1998 when Dave was just four months old. This upcoming show will not be part of a tour but serves as a homecoming for the artist.

At just 27 years old, Dave has made a remarkable impact in the UK music scene, becoming the first UK artist to debut three consecutive albums at number one on the UK album chart. His work often reflects political themes and personal experiences, with lyrics that reference his Nigerian heritage.

The show is anticipated to bridge British and Nigerian music identities, showcasing his evolving artistry.
