British-nigerian Rapper Dave Announces First-ever Lagos Headline Show

British-Nigerian rapper Dave has announced his first-ever Lagos headline show, bringing his world tour to Nigeria in October 2026.

British-Nigerian rapper Dave has announced his first-ever headline show in the National Theatre, Lagos, confirming an October 2026 date (Friday 16th and Saturday 17th) via his official X page on Tuesday. The announcement marks a significant moment for both his fanbase in Nigeria, as well as Dave personally, given his deep ties to the country.

Dave, whose real name is David Orobosa Omoregie, has Nigerian roots on his father’s side. His father was deported to Nigeria in 1998 when Dave was just four months old, a detail that has shaped much of his music and public identity over the years.

A Lagos headline show, then, will not only be a tour stop, but also a homecoming of sorts, which he directly referenced in his announcement.

Who Dave is

For anyone unfamiliar, Dave is one of the most decorated rappers to emerge from the UK in the past decade. At just 27, he became the first UK artist to debut three consecutive albums at number one on the UK Albums Chart, a record that places him debatably above every British rap artist before him.

His catalogue spans politically charged early work, including the track ‘Question Time’, along with his debut album Psychodrama, which made him the youngest ever winner of a Mercury Prize. His latest project, The Boy Who Played the Harp, has driven his ongoing world tour across Europe, North America, Australia and now Africa.

Dave continues to reference his relationship with Nigeria in his works. His latest album contains lyrics directly referencing Victoria Island in Lagos, touching on the stark contrast between the city’s nightlife wealth and the poverty that surrounds it.
