Due to the recent family tragedy, the planned Are We Africans Yet (A.W.A.Y.) Atlanta event has been postponed until November 2023.
On November 18, 2022, the 20,000-seat State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, was to host the "A.W.A.Y." festival.
The multi-award-winning megastar's performance was going to be supported by several stars, including Mayorkun, Stonebwoy, BNXN, Kizz Daniel, Pheelz, Lojay, and others.
However, the festival has been postponed by a year and is now scheduled to take place on November 18, 2023, in light of the father's recent and tragic death of his son Ifeanyi Adeleke. In a statement yesterday announcing the delay, management disclosed this information.
"We have made the difficult but necessary decision to postpone A.W.A.Y Festival until Saturday, November 18, 2023.
To all ticket buyers, your tickets will be honored for the 2023 date. We understand that you must be disappointed but we promise to come back with a bigger and better show.
Thank you for understanding and we look forward to seeing you all in the near future."
Readers may remember that Ifeanyi, Davido's 3-year-old son, drowned in the pool at the family's Banana Island home, and Davido lost him. The loss was caused by drowning, according to the authorities, and his death is being looked into.
