Our December slate has never been more exciting; there is something for everyone.”

Rhythm Unplugged, founded in 2004, is West Africa’s longest-running concert series, with over 70 shows hosted throughout Nigeria. Host cities have included Lagos, Benin, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Jos, and Ibadan.
Rhythm Unplugged has established itself as a cornerstone of the Nigerian music
landscape. The list of artistes the concert has platformed is staggering and includes Burna Boy, Davido, Wizkid, Rema, Adekunle Gold, Simi, Bovi, Gunna, T and Nelding. On the foundation laid by Rhythm Unplugged, Flytime Fest was launched in 2017 in order to expand and deepen Flytime ‘ offerings. Flytime Fest is Nigeria’s first-ever multi-day music indoor festival. Its history includes Asake, Tems, Davido, Tiwa Savage, Olamide, Ayra Starr, Megan Thee Stallion, Boyz II Men, Bobby Brown and Bell Biv DeVoe amongst many more star artists.
While Flytime’s legacy includes many firsts, those firsts are not solely about being first to market, they are about believing in Nigeria’s music and entertainment industry before most did, and playing a part in laying the groundwork upon which many industry actors have built.
Speaking on this, Flytime Promotions COO, Keke Hammond, says:
“We’re grateful to be back for another year, creating spaces that bring joy, connection, and opportunity to artists, fans, and the creative industry as a whole. Building infrastructure is deep work that comes with a lot of sacrifice. We’re 21 this year, that’s over two decades of being on a journey of building and expanding our home-grown music industry. We’re set to expand globally beginning in 2026, but for now, the focus is giving Lagos a December they won’t forget.”
