Again, Burna Boy sells out 80,000-capacity London Stadium

Singer, Damini Ogulu, aka Burna Boy, has yet again, sold out the 80,000-capacity stadium in London.

On Saturday, the Grammy-winning singer thrilled his audience with an amazing performance at West Ham United’s London Stadium.

Burna Boy performed some of his hits including ‘City Boys’, ‘On Form’, and ‘Last Last’ while energetic concertgoers sang along.

The concert was opened with comedy performed by Nigerian skitmaker, Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Ejekwu, aka Sabinus.

Burna Boy was joined on the stage by several Nigerian music stars including Omah Lay, Phyno, Shallipopi, Odumodublvck, Seyi Vibez, BNXN, and Pheelz.

The Malian singer Salif Keita and the Swedish singer Snoh Aalegra were the international guest performers at the concert.

This is not the first time Burna Boy will be headlining a concert at the London Stadium.

In 2023, Burna Boy became the first African artist to headline the 80,000-capacity stadium solo.

In 2021, the singer set a record in Nigeria after his fifth album ‘Twice As Tall’ won the ‘Best World Music Album’ category at the Grammy Awards.

Over the years, Burna Boy has performed and sold out some notable venues across the globe.

In April, he was ranked the African artiste with the highest revenue from a single concert.
