Olamide Set to Make History at London’s O₂ Arena

Nigerian rapper and YBNL Nation founder Olamide Adedeji, popularly known as Baddo, is set to headline London’s O₂ Arena for the first time on March 25, 2027.

The concert marks a new milestone in the career of the Nigerian artiste, whose music has played a significant role in the development of street-hop and contemporary Afrobeats.

Olamide’s upcoming performance follows his headline show at OVO Wembley Arena in November 2025. The London concert is expected to feature songs from across his career, including tracks from his 2025 self-titled album, Olamidé.

The O₂ Arena, which accommodates approximately 20,000 people, has hosted Nigerian artistes including Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, Asake and Rema.

Special guest appearances from the Afrobeats and UK music scenes are expected, although further details have yet to be announced.

Priority tickets for O₂ and Virgin Media customers are scheduled to go on sale on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, at 10 a.m. General ticket sales are scheduled to begin on Friday, October 23, at 10 a.m. via AXS.

Doors are scheduled to open at 6:30 p.m.

The concert will add to Olamide’s record of international performances as Nigerian music continues to expand its presence in major venues across the United Kingdom and beyond.
