World's biggest Christian concert takes place in Lagos, Nigeria
by Lydia Davies
The 18th edition of The Experience, one of the world's largest gospel music concerts, took place on Friday 6th December 2024, at Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos, Nigeria.
Organised by Pastor Paul Adefarasin of the House On The Rock church, this free, all-night worship event drew hundreds of thousands of attendees from across Nigeria and around the globe.
Millions more tuned in online to the live stream, according to their website.
Many expressed their gratitude for the live stream, with one Youtube user commenting: "Even as I worshipped online, I danced and prayed like I was present physically."
This year's event featured a star-studded lineup of international and Nigerian gospel artists, including Sinach, Travis Greene, Don Moen, Nathaniel Bassey, and Mercy Chinwo.
Dignitaries and faith leaders, including Nigerian Vice President Kashim Shettima, were present on the night.
