Oyo Govt Endorses Davido’s ‘5ive Concert’ in Ibadan

Global Afrobeats sensation and Grammy nominee Davido is set to bring his electrifying ‘5ive Concert’ tour to Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, on Sunday, November 9, 2025 — with full backing from the Oyo State Government.

Organisers confirmed that the state’s support for the mega event aligns with its broader vision to boost tourism, promote youth engagement, and strengthen the creative economy.

The concert, expected to attract over 20,000 fans from across the Southwest, will take place at the historic Liberty Stadium. The atmosphere in Ibadan has been charged with excitement, as music lovers anticipate a night of glitz, energy, and world-class performances from the hitmaker behind global anthems like Unavailable, Feel, and Timeless.

Adding to the spectacle, Davido will share the stage with several homegrown stars, including Keanzo, Fabulous Pizzy, Dele Omo Woli, and Sade Blaq, all set to deliver powerful performances that celebrate Ibadan’s growing influence in Nigeria’s entertainment scene.

According to the organisers, the ‘5ive Concert’ goes beyond entertainment — it serves as a platform for cultural promotion and local talent development, showcasing Ibadan as a vibrant hub for music and tourism.

“The government’s support reflects its belief in the power of the creative industry to drive economic growth and empower young people,” the organisers said.

Meanwhile, the city’s hospitality and tourism sectors are already experiencing a surge in activity as fans from across the region flood into Ibadan for the event.

With Davido headlining and the Oyo State Government’s endorsement, the ‘5ive Concert’ promises to be one of the biggest entertainment events of the year — fusing music, culture, and celebration in the heart of the Southwest.
