Lagos is about to experience a musical revolution! Move Afrika: Lagos, the highly anticipated concert powered by Global Citizen, is bringing an electrifying lineup of global and homegrown talent to The Palms, Lagos, on February 25, 2025.
At the heart of this spectacle is John Legend, the multi-award-winning singer-songwriter and producer who has conquered every major accolade in entertainment, from Grammys to an Emmy, an Oscar, and a Tony. Joining him on stage is one of Nigeria’s most soulful voices, Simi, alongside the beat maestro himself, DJ Consequence, who is sure to turn up the heat with his high-energy mixes.
But Move Afrika is more than just another concert—it’s a movement. Global Citizen’s initiative is designed to build a world-class music touring circuit across Africa, boosting local economies, creating jobs, and fostering entrepreneurial opportunities. The 2025 edition is particularly focused on transforming Africa’s healthcare landscape by advocating for stronger domestic health financing, prioritizing primary healthcare and reproductive rights, and securing global investments in health resilience.
