Entertainment Week Lagos (EWL) 2024 is set to bring together Africa’s brightest talents for an unforgettable week of music, art, fashion, and technology. Scheduled to take place from December 10th to 15th, this premier event promises to showcase the energy and creativity of Africa’s thriving entertainment scene.
EWL 2024 will provide a platform for over 5,000 creatives, innovators, and industry leaders from across the continent and beyond. With the theme “Connecting Tides,” this year’s event explores the intersection of artificial intelligence, technology, and storytelling, and how African creatives can merge cutting-edge innovation with cultural authenticity to capture global audiences.
The focus stretches beyond talent to empowering young voices and shaping the future of the entertainment industry. According to Deola Art Alade, Group CEO of Livespot360 and Co-Founder of the Livespot Foundation, EWL 2024 is designed to equip creatives with the practical tools they need to succeed on a global scale. 
“This event isn’t just about celebrating talent; it’s about creating real impact and providing the resources for creatives to thrive globally,” Alade stated.
One of the event’s most anticipated features is the LABSPOT Creative Skills and Enterprise Development (CSED), an initiative dedicated to continuous training and enterprise development for youth and women in the creative sector. Through LABSPOT, EWL 2024 will offer a lineup of masterclasses and workshops to help participants grow and excel in their creative careers.
EWL 2024 will also feature a thrilling entertainment lineup, including art exhibitions, music performances, film screenings, fashion shows, and pop-up nightlife experiences with Club X and Livespot X Concerts. The event is designed to transform Lagos into a vibrant hub of creativity, culture, and collaboration.
Additionally, the Marketplace will offer a platform for small businesses to showcase their products, with pop-up shops, merchandise booths, and exhibition spaces where attendees can support local brands and discover new talent.
In the words of Tiwa Medubi, Managing Director of Livespot360, “EWL is about creating bridges – between local talent and global opportunities, between creatives and the tools they need to succeed. It’s a space for growth, collaboration, and impact, and we can’t wait to see the magic that unfolds this year.”
