Nigerian superstar Adekunle Gold is set to make history at the London Jazz Festival this November. He will be the first Nigerian and only the second African artist to perform at this famous event. The only other African to perform there is the multi-Grammy winner Angelique Kidjo.
The festival runs from November 12 to 24, 2025. Adekunle Gold will close the show on Sunday, November 23. His stage will be the Royal Festival Hall. He will perform with the Gulldhall Session Orchestra. This will add a new twist to his live shows.
Adekunle Gold is known for mixing different music styles. He will show his skills in a fresh way with the orchestra. Since his first hit, “Sade,” he has become one of Afrobeats’ top performers. He has released popular albums like “Gold,” “About 30,” and “Afro-pop Vol 1.” Each album shows how his music keeps growing.
His latest album, “Tequila Ever After,” shows his talent in blending genres. Fans love how his music connects with many people.
Adekunle Gold likes to push limits. In 2023, he made news with a big show at Denmark’s Roskilde Festival. That was a bold step for an Afrobeats artist. Now, he is ready to make more history at the London Jazz Festival.
Tickets for his show go on sale on June 6, 2025. Fans can buy them on the festival’s website. Many are excited to see what this special show will bring.
