Ibadan, the heart of Oyo State and one of Nigeria’s most historic cities, is on the brink of a cultural renaissance. On 28th December 2025, the Amphitheater, Adamasingba Stadium will host the highly anticipated Ibadan Unity Concert, a transformative event designed to bring together the city’s creatives, entertainers, and community champions under one roof. The event, presented by African Groove with Keanzo in partnership with Afro Nova, is more than a music concert—it is a movement, a platform for empowerment, and a catalyst for community development.
A Vision Born from a Wake-Up Call
In recent weeks, Ibadan has experienced a renewed wave of conversations, passion, and action around the city’s cultural and creative potential. This movement stems from a bold wake-up call: a demand to revive and elevate the entertainment ecosystem that has historically shaped the city’s identity. Out of this call grew the Ibadan Unity Concert, a mega-event designed to celebrate and empower local talent, foster creative collaboration, and ignite economic growth through culture.
The concert is committed to uniting all facets of the creative industry: music artists, DJs, dancers, hypemen, producers, media personalities, and emerging talent. It is a stage where creativity meets opportunity, where Ibadan’s artistic heartbeat will be amplified and shared with the world.
Empowering the Next Generation of Talent
Central to the vision of the Ibadan Unity Concert is the empowerment of 50 rising talents. These young creatives will be trained, showcased, and equipped with the tools necessary to thrive in the entertainment industry. From stagecraft to networking, performance skills to brand development, the concert provides a launchpad for Ibadan’s homegrown stars to shine on a national and international level.
The empowerment initiative is not only about individual growth—it is about community impact. By developing a new generation of artists, performers, and industry leaders, the Ibadan Unity Concert aims to create sustainable jobs, encourage entrepreneurship, and strengthen the creative economy in the city. Every ticket purchased contributes directly to this mission, making attendees stakeholders in the growth and transformation of Ibadan’s cultural landscape.
A Platform for Unity, Creativity, and Community Development
The Ibadan Unity Concert is carefully designed to bring together the city’s creative ecosystem. Attendees will experience a vibrant mix of live music, rap cyphers, raves, bun fire displays, fireworks, raffle draws, and interactive creative moments. Beyond entertainment, the event is a celebration of Ibadan’s collective identity, innovation, and resilience.
This is a community-centered initiative. By uniting creatives, influencers, industry leaders, and everyday citizens, the concert fosters a culture of collaboration and mutual support. It encourages local participation, promotes civic pride, and positions Ibadan as a destination for cultural tourism and investment in the arts.
