The African Union (AU) has also chosen Lagos as the host city of the African Music Awards from November 25 to 30.


The end of the year events, popularly described detty December always have huge positive effects on the socio-economic landscape of the State.

So, to uncover which cities are the best of the best when it comes to going out after dark in 2025, we quizzed thousands of city-dwellers and consulted a panel of experts to curate a list of the planet’s best nightlife cities.”
