Laughter Incorporated Ventures has announced that the grand finale of the 2026 edition of Laffmattazz with Gbenga Adeyinka & Friends will hold on Sunday, November 15, at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos. The event begins at 3 p.m.
Tagged “Lagos Gets the Last Laugh,” the finale will close a tour that has visited Ibadan, Akure, Calgary, London, Ontario, Toronto, and Abeokuta.
For veteran comedian and entertainer Gbenga Adeyinka 1st, GCON, the Lagos finale represents a homecoming, as the city played a significant role in shaping his entertainment career more than three decades ago.
The event, themed “The Next Chapter: A New Season of Laughter,” will feature a blend of comedy, music, culture and fashion. It will also mark the culmination of the tour’s 15th anniversary celebrations, alongside more than three decades of Adeyinka’s career in the entertainment industry.
FirstBank is the lead sponsor and official tour partner of the 2026 edition. Laughter Incorporated Ventures acknowledged the bank’s support for the tour across Nigeria and Canada, noting its contribution to bringing the Lagos finale to fruition.
As preparations gain momentum, the organisers have also invited additional sponsors and brand partners to join the event. Proposed partnership opportunities include audience engagement, hospitality, on-site activations and campaign visibility before, during and after the finale.
According to the organisers, the event offers brands an opportunity to connect with audiences through comedy and shared cultural experiences.
The Lagos finale is expected to round off the 2026 tour, bringing the production back to the city where Adeyinka’s entertainment journey began.
