Nigerian music sensation Flavour has once again proven his legendary status by selling out the 12,000-capacity OVO Wembley Arena in London on August 24, 2024. The electrifying concert saw Flavour delivering an unforgettable performance, showcasing his nearly two-decade-long career and solidifying his place as one of Africa’s most iconic artists.
Flavour, who dropped his eighth album, African Royalty, in December 2023, treated fans to live renditions of hits like “Game Changer” and “Levels,” setting the arena ablaze with his signature blend of African rhythms and highlife beats.
But Flavour wasn’t alone in making the night memorable. The concert featured guest performances from fellow Nigerian stars Phyno, Falz, and Iyanya, who added their own flair to the evening. The event was also graced by notable personalities like socialite Cubana Chief Priest, Davido’s manager Asa Asika, singer Chike, and Nigerian footballer Alex Iwobi, making it a true celebration of African talent.
Flavour’s ability to pack out a venue as iconic as the OVO Wembley Arena is a testament to his enduring appeal and the widespread love for his music that transcends borders. Throughout his career, Flavour has consistently infused his work with rich African cultural elements, particularly from his Igbo heritage, earning him numerous accolades and a loyal global fanbase.
In a recent interview on the Adesope Podcast, Flavour emphasized his identity as an African artist rather than just an Afrobeats star, calling for more recognition of the diverse musical genres thriving across the continent.
With this sold-out show, Flavour joins the ranks of fellow Nigerian stars Adekunle Gold and Kizz Daniel, who also packed out the OVO Wembley Arena in 2024, further cementing the global impact of Nigerian music.
