Following the success of the Lagos Street Party in December 2016, described as one of the most colourful event held in Lagos.
This year’s Lagos Street Carnival organized
by the State Government and supported by Heat, will be spectacular as
it showcases the state’s potential for tourism, arts and entertainment
at a global level.
The Carnival, a one
day event, will be held on the 3 of December, 2017 at Oba Akran Road,
Ikeja with an impressive lineup of engaging activities scheduled to run
from 12.00 noon to 12.00 midnight.
The
carnival aims to meetup with the standards of notable and established
international carnivals around the world with the participation of over
seven hundred cultural troupes in colorful costumes, design and
animation in a controlled procession including floats along the stretch
of Oba Akran Road, Ikeja.
There will be a
concert which would feature prominent artistes such as Olamide, Lil
Kesh, Humble Smith, Salawa Abeni, Osupa, Malaika, Terry G and several
Dj’s to add musical spice to the carnival.
The
carnival also offers entrepreneurs and corporate brands the opportunity
to exhibit and market their products and services. Activities and side
attractions during the event include; Outdoor Games, Kiddies Corner,
Bouncing Castle, Rodeo Bull, Carrousels and much more.
There
is the assurance of adequate security measures by the Lagos State
Government as various security agents would be deployed at strategic
areas around the venue to ensure proper security and free flow of
traffic during the carnival. Designated parking lots will also be
provided for motorists who may wish to bring their family to the
carnival ground whilst shuttle buses provided to convey guests around.
The essence of the Lagos Street Carnival is to create an avenue for people to have fun, unwind and network as it is done in other parts of the world.
