In a landmark event, Adekunle Gold has become the inaugural artist to completely sell out the recently refurbished National Theatre, now rebranded as the Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and Creative Arts. On December 26, 2025, he was honored with a special plaque commemorating his achievement of filling the venue’s 3,560-seat capacity during his spectacular “Greatest Show Yet” concert.
A Musical Journey Through Six Albums with Orchestral Flair

The concert was elevated by the collaboration with a 55-piece MUSON Orchestra alongside his band, The 79th Element. This fusion of classical orchestration and contemporary live instruments created a dynamic and immersive musical experience that resonated deeply with fans.
