Scheduled for June 2026, this event aims to celebrate the achievements of significant cultural figures, including former Super Eagles star Segun Odegbami and Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka, highlighting the city's rich artistic heritage.
The Lagos Entertainment Association, the driving force behind the event, seeks to unify various sectors of the entertainment landscape, from music to sports. This initiative comes at a time when the entertainment industry is rapidly evolving, with a growing influence on both local and global scales.
