Nigerian rapper Blaqbonez has been announced as another headliner for Elite Fest 2026, joining singer BNXN, who was previously unveiled for the December festival.
The event is scheduled for December 21, 2026, at Balmoral Convention Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos. Organised by The Elite Collective, this year’s edition carries the theme Evolution of Afrobeats.
Blaqbonez’s announcement adds another major name to the festival’s growing lineup. The rapper has enjoyed a strong year, particularly with the success of “CHANEL” featuring Asake, “Ikebe 3000” and his album NOMADINHO: 4TH PRIME, released in October.
With both Blaqbonez and BNXN confirmed as headliners, Elite Fest is shaping up to be one of the notable Afrobeats events on Lagos’ December entertainment calendar.
The festival will open its doors at 4 PM WAT, with tickets already available through the official event website at elitefestiva.org
