The “Detty December” calendar just got its definitive street anthem. Olamide, the legendary YBNL boss and architect of Nigerian street-hop, has been officially confirmed as a headliner for FlyTime Fest 2025.
The rap icon is set to take over the Eko Convention Center on Tuesday, December 23rd, promising a night of high-energy performance that will serve as the perfect prelude to Christmas.
This headline slot comes on the heels of Olamide’s historic conquest in London. Just weeks ago, the rapper shut down the OVO Wembley Arena, delivering a sold-out performance that solidified his status as a global touring force. Now, he returns to his home turf for a “rerun of the magic,” bringing that same international production value and energy back to the streets that made him.
In a direct message to his fans, Olamide confirmed the homecoming with characteristic flair: “Touchdown Lagos! Let’s have a rerun of the maza we pulled in London. Are you ready to rock n roll? Head to @FlyTimeFest for tickets.”

FlyTime Fest, powered by Coca-Cola, is renowned for curating the biggest moments in Nigerian entertainment. By securing Olamide for the December 23rd date, they have guaranteed a “shutdown” event. Olamide’s catalog—spanning over a decade of hits from Eni Duro to his recent Unruly album—is a soundtrack to the Nigerian experience.
His performance is expected to be a masterclass in stage command, likely featuring surprise appearances from his YBNL proteges and industry friends.
