Lagos will, this December, host a grand orchestra celebration of Nigeria’s greatest old skool hits, which organisers said aims to revive the timeless music of Nigerian legends such as Victor Olaiya, Oliver De Coque, Onyeka Onwenu, Victor Uwaifo and Bobby Benson, blending highlife, fuji, afrobeats and Christmas carols.

Organised by Enchanted Concerts and WhatADeal Events, the cultural event scheduled for December 13 will feature the Varie Orchestra and stage storytelling by award-winning actors Oluchi Odii and Ralph Okoro.

Every year, people look for that one event that captures the soul of the season,” said Funmi Oyatogun, founder and curator of Enchanted Concerts.

She added: “The Old Skool Christmas Edition brings together the sights, sounds and styles that defined Nigerian celebrations of the past. Expect live music, elegant fashion, nostalgic décor and the kind of atmosphere only a Nigerian Christmas can offer.”

The concert marks the second edition of the Enchanted Concerts series, designed to preserve Nigeria’s musical heritage while offering audiences a festive experience rooted in cultural memory.
