Seven iconic music stars namely Olamide, Phyno, Flavour, Timaya, Kiss Daniel, Di’ja and Reekado Banks will converge on the Golden Tulip venue of the event to entertain their fans and Glo subscribers in the area.
The Glo Mega Music Nationwide Tour kicked off in Awka, Anambra State, on April 15, and has gone round 22 different locations such as Aba, Asaba; Calabar; Port Harcourt; Ajah; Victoria Island; Benin, Ekpoma; Owerri; Ibadan; Ikeja; Abuja; Abeokuta; Ijebu Ode; Akure; Enugu; Suleja; Kaduna; Kubwa; Lokoja and Makurdi before coming to FESTAC.

Mama G, and Richard Mofe-Damijo will make celebrity guest appearances at the show, while DJ Neptune will supply delightful tunes on the wheel of steel at the event.
Globacom in an official release issued on Thursday said that “the show remains free, as all any subscriber wishing to attend the event needs to do is to use airtime worth N2,000 in a month for data or voice and send SMS “MUSIC FESTAC” to the short code 207″.
The company added that those who did not meet the requirement as well as new subscribers “can also be part of the fun provided that they come to the venue of the show and buy recharge card worth N2,000. They will then receive tickets which will admit them into the hall of the event”.
Commenting on the FESTAC show, Olamide, fondly referred to as Baddo, enthused, “I am highly excited to be back to the crew of the Glo Mega Music Nationwide Tour having been out of the last two shows, and I want to use this medium to assure my fans in FESTAC area and beyond that it is going to be real wavy level on Saturday, and I encourage them to come out in their numbers to be part of the fun as nobody does it better than Globacom”.
In the same vein, Reekado Banks, promised that Saturday would be fun all through as all the acts billed to perform are “world-class in their own way and they are all on fire”.
