Time Out Ranks Lagos '6th Best Nightlife City In The World', Beating NY, London. by Kemetian(op): 3:12am On Jan 15, 2025
Lagos is now officially a WORLD CLASS TOURIST AND ENTERTAINMENT DESTINATION.

The iconic Time Out magazine read for generations by millions of western fun-seekers, has now ranked Lagos 6TH in the world in terms of NIGHTLIFE, beating cities like London, New York, Los Angeles, Nairobi, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Paris, and others, including Accra, who came in at a distant 10th.

6 LAGOS

Nigeria

How it ranked Afrobeats, a sound that has taken dancefloors by storm the world over, has its roots in Nigeria – so it’s no wonder the country’s largest urban hub scored so highly on the nightlife front. Lagos earned an 80 percent quality score for its nightlife scene, and it’s not too expensive to locals either, scoring 48 percent for affordability.

Why visit now ‘This summer, nightlife in Lagos has taken on a bit of a theme: there are events that celebrate our city’s rich history alongside nights that look to the future,’ says Lagos writer Ade Adeniji. ‘We’ve just come off the back of a citywide celebration of Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka's 90th birthday, including at Freedom Park Lagos, where live music went on all night. Familiar spaces like Freedom Park and The House on Victoria Island are now being used for fun new nightlife events: there are Sunday salsa nights and networking events alike at The House, as well as regular clubnight Odyssey House, a go-to for experiencing the rising afro house scene. During Pride Month, Francis Fola Ball brought ballroom culture alive and honoured the late Fola Francis, the first trans model to walk at Lagos Fashion Week.’

I laugh in Greek. grin grin

These types of good news were not happening under Buhari sha, even though one tried to support him small back then.

In fact the man was too dull for this country.

I like the new dynamism that comes with this Tinubu administration.

Detty December 2025 will be wild, because perhaps 4 or 5 times the number of foreigners will arrive this time compared to last year which in itself was huge, with Lagos joints raking in over 200 million dollars in December. Maybe this year it could be 1 billion dollars!

You don't rank based on nothing.

The list is laughable. Austin has better nightlife than Dallas, talkless of New York!😅

Satanic entity. Why did you exclude the part that QUALIFIES the list by stating that:

''Cities such as Lagos (Nigeria) and Algiers (Algeria) have gained ground, with some improvements in their healthcare and education systems.''?

That part did not suit your hateful, anti-Nigerian narrative, did it? ^^^^

That's why you deliberately excluded it, and it shows you are an imbeci.le driven by hate.

Night life is just for the Nigerian rich, the foreigners who bring in foreign currencies ör Nigerians who travelled back höme with hard currencies for a devalued naira currencies to enjoy the night life.

Nightlife is not for miscreants, agberos, snatchers & grabbers unless they want to pick your pocket at night.

How many Lagosians can afford the nightlife in Lagos. Is it those whose mothers & grandmothers are Flogged mercilessly for a half loaf of bread or those who perform Night Vigils for 7 days at Bourdillon waiting for crumbs fröm the Bullion vans ? cheesy

Yes Lagos can be ranked in that order only for people with the Papers

What a load of trash.

There are poor people and touts in other cities on the list, and in most major cities across the world.

How many Americans can afford to party in Manhattan New York or Hollywood?

How many homeless Americans sleeping under the bridges of LA and Las Vegas can afford to party in Beverly Hills?

How many Britons can afford to live large and party in London's West End and Canary Wharf?

Rubbish.

There is nothing about ''171 out of 173'' in that page, that could have made you EXCLUDE the part where it says the HEALTHCARE AND EDUCATION SYSTEM OF LAGOS IS IMPROVING.

You are just a horrible person with your morals in the gutter.

LAGOS IS ATTRACTING MILLIONS OF FOREIGN VISITORS PER ANNUM, WITH TRIPLE THE AMOUNT EXPECTED THIS YEAR.

SO CRY THE TEARS. WE LOVE IT.

According to AI ChatGPT

''During the festive season from November 19 to December 26, 2024, Lagos experienced a significant influx of visitors. Approximately 550,000 inbound passengers were recorded at Murtala Muhammed International Airport, with about 90%—nearly 495,000—arriving primarily for leisure and tourism purposes.

Additionally, Lagos hosted an estimated 1.2 million tourists during this period, with 60% being local visitors. This suggests that around 480,000 were international tourists.



These figures highlight Lagos's growing appeal as a prime destination for both domestic and international tourists during the holiday season.''

You are not in any 1% or 5%, you little mosquito. People in that bracket do not come online to lie, denigrate and hate on Nigeria.

Here is the publication you posted after removing the part stating that LAGOS HEALTHCARE DELIVERY AND EDUCATION SYSTEM IS IMPROVING.

There is no ''171'' there, so why did you exclude the rest of the text about the IMPROVED LAGOS HEALTHCARE AND EDUCATION SYSTEM?
