Dave brings The Boy Who Played the Harp tour to a close in Lagos on 17 October 2026, with the final show at the Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and Creative Arts. The two-night run begins on 16 October 2026 at the venue formerly known as the National Theatre.
Dave’s Lagos shows close The Boy Who Played the Harp tour
The official tour listing places the concerts at National Theatre in Lagos on 16 and 17 October 2026. The Lagos announcement identifies the venue as the Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and Creative Arts, formerly the National Theatre.
The shows are Dave’s first headline appearances in Nigeria, and 17 October is the closing night of the tour. That status makes the second Lagos date the final live stop on this tour.
Dave’s British rap catalogue leads into Lagos finale
Dave is an English rapper from Brixton, south London, whose work sits within the British rap and hip-hop tradition. He emerged through UK grime and built a catalogue around socially observant writing, piano-led production and narrative songs.
The Official Charts profile identifies Psychodrama as Dave’s Mercury Prize-winning debut. His later albums include We’re All Alone in This Together and The Boy Who Played the Harp, the record that lends its name to the Lagos tour.
Dave’s Nigeria debut gives the tour a two-night ending
The Lagos concerts are billed as headline shows rather than a festival appearance, and both nights use the same venue and tour title. They give the album-led live programme a Nigerian endpoint while keeping the focus on Dave’s own performance.
