Get ready to turn up big time as we approach the Easter festivities that mark the end of the first quarter of the year. Our plan (as usual) is to make every day of the holiday count and Live the Lagos life to the fullest! You know how much we love our holidays over here and we've got 4 whole work free days, the first this year! What better way to prepare for this period than harming yourself with our list of the biggest gigs this Easter.
There are concerts, comedy shows, stage plays, Fashion shows and so many exciting activities happening all around Lagos. We are outling these 8 that we think would be worth your holiday and money of course!
Gidi Fest is one of the most highly anticipated Easter gigs in Lagos. In its fifth year running, the Music festival has grown to become our own Coachella and has over the years blessed us with performances from the likes of Diplo, Sauti sol, Vanessa Mdee, Burna Boy, Wizkid and has also been a platform for so many rising artistes.
This year looks quite promising, with Wizkid and 2face headlining the show! We would definitely put our bet on this one.
Happening at the Hard Rock beach front, Victoria Island on Easter Friday, March 30th.
Tickets are available online here from N5000 only.
2. AY LIVE
Clearly one of the most consistent comedy shows and undoubtedly one of the biggest and most loved comedians in this part of the world, AY does not fail to deliver every single year. The event is always sold out, which is why you should book your tickets now. (You can thank us later)
Holding on Easter Sunday, April 1st at the Eko convention Centre, Victoria Island. Tickets available from 7k on afritickets and other ticketing sites.
We are pretty sure this line up has got you screaming already! We are sooo super stoked at Boy Better know's Homecoming concert. We are still trying to recover from Skepta's visit at the concert in December and now they're bringing JHus, Not3s and all the cool kids of music! We are expecting nothing but Major Major Vibe! We would be counting down to Easter Monday to get our Grime on!
Tickets available from 3,500 for students, 5000 for regular and 20,000 for VIP all at bbkafrica
It's safe to say that Afro Beach Rave is the first of it's kind. 3 days of music and fun!
The Party is divided into three elements. Fire, Water, Earth, Air. Each tribe has a high chief.

7. FELA AND THE KALAKUTA QUEENS
Lagosians really enjoyed Fela and the Kalakuta Queens mostly because ith ad a relatable storyline. The show times were usually filled with VIP appearances, From Jon Boyega to even the Vice president, Bolanle Austen Peters sure knows how to pull a good crowd. So incase you couldn't get see the Play during the previous run, Here's your chance, grab a ticket and come in your Wakanda attitude.
Show times are 3pm and 7pm and the good thing is it's running all weekends in April. You have no excuse. Tickets are from N7000 and N20,000 on terrakulture.com
