JOY OF MUSIC AFRICA (JOMA) 2026

Joy of Music Africa (JOMA) is a three-hour live music experience featuring an Afrocentric 35-man crew consisting of amazing singers, dancers and dramatists. The music focuses on cosmopolitan, afrocentric sounds – pure and fusioned African vibes, set to fire by a contemporary, youthful energy. We’ll take you as far back as the 70s and then to the most recent global afrocentric/afrofusion sounds. You will experience pure joy from the performances of evergreen hits, as well as original works from the best talents at Tenstrings Music Institute – Nigeria's largest school of music.

The Freedom Park Lagos, where the event holds, is a reputable arts and culture centre with the capacity to hold a large number of fans and providing extensive value-added leisure and experiences: art galleries, gardens, fountains and fish ponds; restaurants, bars and lounges, live venues and theatre facilities; and a repository of cultural and historic relics. As a former colonial Pr*son facility turned leisure and entertainment destination, it holds such a robust story and values that corroborate all that great music stands for. Located on Broad Street, Lagos, it is central to the Island and Mainland parts of Lagos and offers a family-oriented and secure ambience. The park is a renowned tourist destination which attracts 100s of visitors daily.

The event is FREE, but Freedom Park will accept a N3000 gate fee per participant.
