    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.

    Channels Television reports that Juma Jux’s Lagos concert at Ilubirin doubled as a Detty December magnet—pulling in returning Nigerians, celebs, and a rotating cast of guest performers through the night.

    The show reportedly stretched into the early hours, with ticket tiers and crowd energy reflecting how Lagos’ December circuit has become a structured festival economy, not just vibes.

    – TheCable Lifestyle (News outlet): “One standout moment came when Jux brought his wife Priscilla Ojo on stage.”
    – HipTV (Facebook / media platform): “The moment Diamond Platnumz performed with Jumajux at his lagos concert last night!”

    Analysis/Echotitbits take: Detty December is now a serious regional culture-business: travel, nightlife, ticketing, sponsorship, and influencer media all move together. The real watch is whether organisers tighten safety/logistics as crowds scale—and whether more East/West African collaborations become December staples.
