According to BusinessDay, Detty December Fest rolled out a first wave of headliners spanning U.S. rap and African acts, positioning the event as a major pillar of Lagos’ end-of-year entertainment season.

The lineup push reinforces how December has become a full economic cycle in Lagos—feeding hotels, ride-hailing, restaurants, fashion retail, and nightlife venues as visitors flood the city.

It also shows how promoters now market Lagos December as a brand, blending global hip-hop names with Nigerian street-pop and regional stars to drive cross-audience demand.

TheCable echoed the rollout, noting “the first wave of artistes,” while the festival’s official site lists performers and dates for the Lagos run.

Echotitbits take: Watch the operational side—ticketing integrity, crowd management, traffic coordination, and emergency readiness. Lagos December is big business now, and one poorly handled mega-event can damage the entire season’s credibility.
