GOtv Boxing Night: Jams Festival Adds Mavo To Performance Line-Up

The GOtv Boxing Night Jams Festival has announced the addition of fast-rising Afrobeats star Mavo to its live performance line-up, joining Afro-fusion artist Showday at the event scheduled for 26 December at Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos.

The festival, which uniquely combines live music with professional boxing, has become a staple on Lagos’ December entertainment calendar, attracting fans of both sport and music to one venue. This year’s edition will feature six professional boxing bouts alongside musical performances.

Mavo has enjoyed a successful year, breaking through with his energetic, slang-infused style and crowd-pleasing hits such as “Escapade,” “Shaye,” and “Feelings.” His momentum has been driven by chart-topping singles, increasing international attention, and collaborations that have positioned him as one of Afrobeats’ most exciting new voices.

Showday has established his own niche as a reliable live performer, earning acclaim for his smooth Afro-fusion sound and relatable songwriting. Tracks like “Overdose,” “Better Days,” and “Tonight,” along with collaborations with established Nigerian artists, have made him a familiar presence on major stages and festivals.

With both artists confirmed, the organisers promise that the GOtv Boxing Night Jams Festival will deliver a rich blend of sporting and musical entertainment, reinforcing its reputation as one of the festive season’s most anticipated events. Boxing gloves on, playlists at the ready.
