All is set for the grandest music spectacle of the year in Ibadan as Afrobeats superstar Davido brings his highly anticipated ‘5ive Tour Concert’ to the city this weekend. Excitement is at its peak, with thousands of fans trooping into Ibadan for what is expected to be one of the most electrifying entertainment events ever hosted in Oyo State.
In preparation for the massive turnout, the Oyo State Government has heightened security around Liberty Stadium — the concert venue and adjoining areas. Multiple security agencies and traffic management teams have been deployed to ensure order, safety, and a smooth experience for concertgoers.
Backed fully by the state government, the event aligns with Oyo’s vision to empower the creative sector and promote youth-centered entertainment. Davido, renowned for his dynamic stage performances and global hit tracks, will headline the concert, which is projected to draw over 20,000 fans from across Nigeria and beyond.
Adding a unique local flavor, the show will also feature some of Ibadan’s finest homegrown acts, including Keanzo, Fabulous Pizzy, Dele Omo Woli, and Sadeblaq. According to organizers, this inclusion underscores the state’s commitment to spotlighting indigenous talent alongside international stars.
Stakeholders have applauded the government’s support, describing it as a major boost for the state’s entertainment and tourism ecosystem, with ripple effects expected across hospitality, transport, and retail sectors.
With all arrangements in place, Ibadan is set to experience an unforgettable night of music, culture, and pure energy as Davido takes center stage for the historic ‘5ive Concert’.
