Nigerian singer Davido is set to make a momentous debut at New York City’s legendary Madison Square Garden on April 17, 2024, headlining a key performance as part of his extensive Timeless Tour, organised by Duke Concept and spanning North America.
The highly anticipated tour will commence with a spectacular show at Madison Square Garden, followed by an enchanting performance at Montreal’s Place Bell on April 19, and concluding with an unforgettable finale at Orlando’s Additional Financial Arena on April 24.
Expressing his excitement, Davido stated, “Seven years ago, I walked past Madison Square Garden and looked at it and said, ‘We gonna come back and shut this down.’ So to be here now, able to play Madison Square Garden in New York, one of the first cities and fans to embrace my music, at this iconic venue … it’s a dream come true.”
This performance follows the trailblazing achievements of Nigerian artists at MSG, with Burna Boy‘s historic stint in April 2022 and Wizkid’s unforgettable concert in November 2022 highlighting the increasing influence of Nigerian music globally.
Adding to the anticipation, Davido is nominated for prestigious categories at the upcoming 2024 Grammy Awards, including Best African Music Performance for his hit “Unavailable” with Musa Keys and Best Global Music Album for his critically acclaimed fourth studio album, Timeless.
Released through Davido Music Worldwide in March 2023, Timeless achieved impressive rankings, reaching No. 37 on the Billboard 200 and securing the No. 2 position on World Albums. The album’s title track, “Timeless,” made waves, claiming the No. 3 spot on both U.S. Afrobeat’s Songs and World Digital Song Sales charts.
As excitement builds for this groundbreaking event, Davido’s fans can anticipate an unmatched musical experience as the Nigerian superstar graces the stage of Madison Square Garden, solidifying his status as a global music icon.
