EatDrinkFestival started in 2015 and it’s been a party ever since!

We’re happy to announce that tickets are now on sale for our 7th EatDrinkFestival. 

This year is an important one for us for two special reasons. 

1. It’s been FIVE years of Eat.Drink.Lagos

2. We had our first EatDrinkFestival in Abuja

As always, with each Festival we build on the previous year’s experiences in a new way. This year we are thrilled to be adding two dynamic elements to the Festival

New: The Music

For 2019, music is an even bigger part of the Festival experience. Throughout the day, Festival-goers will be treated to sounds from live DJ sets from a talented roster of Nigerian DJs. In the evening, the Festival Main Stage will host live performances from Niniola, Boj, Dami Oniru, and Gigi Atlantis.  Read more.

New: The Workshops

With the intention of sparking creativity, imparting skills, and engaging Festival attendees in a more meaningful way, EatDrinkFestival is thrilled to announce the addition of the Festival Workshops to the line up this year. In four unique workshops, Festival attendees of all ages and with varied interests will have the opportunity to participate in a hands-on workshop led by industry experts. Read more.

The Main Stage

The 2019 EatDrinkFestival Main Stage will offer exciting and education programming to delight Festival attendees of all ages. Each year, the Main Stage features renowned experts in the culinary arts and mixology which is reflective of the growth in the industry in Nigeria. Read more.

The Vendors

The EatDrinkFestival team has curated a selection of 52 chefs, cooks, mixologists, and street food vendors to offer a delicious variety of Nigerian and International foods. The line-up will be announced in early December.

Things To Do

EatDrinkFestival would not be possible without our sponsors and partners. We know that none of our guests wants to be shoved and prodded with flyers and promotional materials from our corporate partners, so we have worked with our partners to carefully create experiences that will elevate our guests’ experiences at the event while still allowing them to show off their products and services to our guests. Think games, art installation, face and body painting, and more!

The Merch Store

Yes! We’re bringing back our legacy Make Better Decisions T-shirt that has been so often asked about and some other bespoke EatDrinkLagos merch. I Heart Lagos!’ fun and inspired T-shirt collection and other products will also be available at EatDrinkFestival.
