The management of multiple award-winning Nigerian artiste, Davido, has announced the postponement of his ‘Are We African Yet’ festival – A.W.A.Y

The festival was initially scheduled for the 18th of November, 2022, at the 21,000 capacity State Farm Arena in Atlanta. Now, it has been moved to November 18, 2023, with all sold tickets remaining valid.

Davido’s management released a memo addressing the reason for the postponement of the festival. It read:

“We have made the difficult but necessary decision to postpone A.W.A.Y festival until Saturday November 18, 2023. It is necessary for Davido to spend time with his family and loved ones at this time.
