The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Fridayy is officially confirmed to co-headline the 2026 Detty December Fest on Sunday, December 27.
He shared his excitement with fans directly. “WOW NIGERIA 🇳🇬 I AM FINALLY COMING!” he wrote. “Thank you for being with me since my journey started 5 years ago. The Support Has Been Unreal. I’m sorry it took so long! But the time is now! BLESSINGS.”

He will share the main stage with R&B star Summer Walker at the Detty December Village in Ilubirin. The 13-day festival, produced by Livespot360, runs from December 18 to December 30 across two stages.
Born Francis LeBlanc, Fridayy brings serious vocal firepower. The Haitian-American artist grew up playing piano, bass, guitar, and drums by ear in his father’s church band. He skyrocketed in 2022 after co-writing and singing the hook on DJ Khaled’s “God Did” alongside Jay-Z and Lil Wayne.
Since then, he has won a Grammy for his contribution to Chris Brown’s 11:11 (Deluxe) and released three studio albums, including 2026’s Tension. His Lagos debut adds to a stacked roster—Wizkid headlines the grand opening on December 18, while Young Thug takes over on December 28.
