Wizkid has added a second date at London’s O2 Arena as part of his ‘Made In Lagos’ tour after the insane reaction to the first date. The GRAMMY award-winning global phenomenon will play a second show at The O2 | London on 29th November to intensify the promotion of his 2020 album ‘Made In Lagos’, which is expecting a deluxe version on August 27th.
Wizkid’s show at the O2 Arena in London sold out in just 12 minutes, leaving fans scrambling to try and find leftover tickets. The Grammy Award-winning artist is scheduled to perform on 28 November as part of the O2’s Welcome Back lineup, with other acts such as Burna Boy and comedian Mo Gilligan also announced.

On his fourth studio album, Wizkid invokes a strong continental impulse across 14 tracks. With melody at the heart of his sonics, he enlists Burna Boy, Ella Mai, H.E.R., Damian Marley and more to capture the rhythmic essence of Afrofusion. Made In Lagos is rooted in Africa—with instrumentation, lingo and vibes inspired by Wiz’s Nigerian origins—and offers worldwide appeal.
On the 19th of October, 2019, Wizkid made history by being the first African artiste to sell out the O2 Arena in London… twice. The 20, 000 capacity venue is highly coveted and is only considered for a show amongst top tier artistes – it is a quite open secret.
While Wizkid’s show is no doubt a great achievement in itself, this is further strengthened by the love inherent among him and the many performing musicians. Rather than embrace a rift-like relationship with his industry colleagues, he does the opposite, sharing his stage with many established and up-and-coming acts.
