Lagos Street Art Festival to Showcase Creativity on November 7

The Lagos Street Art Festival, organized by Inscribe Art and the Lagos State Parks and Gardens Agency, will hold its second edition on November 7, 2026, at Muri Okunola Park, Victoria Island, Lagos. The festival aims to enhance public art and creative expression in the city, featuring visual art, music, and community experiences.

It seeks to transform public spaces into creative landmarks and provide a platform for emerging artists to showcase their work. Osa Okunkpolor, a founding council member of the festival, emphasized the importance of making art accessible beyond traditional galleries.

The festival will include performances by Nigerian hip-hop artists such as Vector, Eva Alordiah, and Illbliss, along with live art battles, DJs, food, and games. The event is supported by various partners, including Adidas and Hennessy, and aims to contribute to a broader public art movement in Africa, focusing on visibility and opportunities for artists.
