Following an eventful year marked by major chart achievements and an international tour, Asake is preparing to return to Lagos for a headline concert scheduled for December 20, 2026.
The singer will headline M$NEY in Lagos, a special live music experience taking place at Oasis Ground, Coastal Road, Victoria Island, as part of Future Fest ’26. The performance will also serve as the closing event of the ten-day cultural festival, which runs from December 11 to 20.
Ticket details circulating online reveal six different categories, with prices ranging from ₦100,000 for General Access to ₦20 million for Platinum Tables. Other options include bleachers at ₦200,000, VIP bleachers at ₦250,000, VVIP bleachers at ₦300,000, and gold tables priced at ₦10 million.
The announcement comes shortly after Asake wrapped up his In God We Trust world tour in Paris, following a successful international run that included major performances across North America and Europe.
The tour followed the release of his fourth studio album, M$NEY, which arrived on May 1 under his Giran Republic label in partnership with EMPIRE. The project enjoyed an impressive opening on streaming platforms, recording approximately 56 million Spotify streams in its first week to become the biggest opening week for an African album on the platform. It also set a new Spotify Nigeria opening-week record with 37.5 million streams.

The album’s success further strengthened Asake’s position in the Nigerian music scene, eventually surpassing Lungu Boy as the longest-running number-one album in the country.
His international run also included a sold-out performance at London’s 20,000-capacity O2 Arena on October 15, marking his third time filling the venue. BNXN and TxC joined the show as supporting acts, while Blaqbonez made a surprise appearance.
The upcoming Lagos concert will mark another major homecoming for the singer, whose last headline appearance in the city was at Flytime Fest on Christmas Eve 2025. That performance attracted an estimated 20,000 fans and featured guest appearances from Olamide, Zlatan and Fuji legend King Saheed Osupa.
Interestingly, Asake’s December return comes just two days after another major YBNL-related event at Future Fest. On December 18, Olamide is scheduled to lead a reunion performance featuring former and current members of the label, including Adekunle Gold, Fireboy DML, Lil Kesh, Young Jonn and Pheelz.
Asake, who was formerly signed to YBNL before establishing his own Giran Republic imprint, is notably absent from the reunion lineup. The development has caught the attention of fans, although neither the singer nor the label has publicly addressed the situation.
With his Lagos headline show set to close out Future Fest ’26, Asake is gearing up for another major moment in what has been a remarkable year for his music career.
