Asake, a MOBO award-winning afrobeat artiste, has achieved a rare feat by selling out the 20,000-capacity O2 Arena, a UK icon, for the second time in two years.

Asake first sold out the iconic venue in 2023 following the release of his sophomore album ‘Work of Art’ in a moment that announced his global ascension.

The O2 Arena, a large venue in London, is a significant milestone for any artiste. Selling out this venue, which means all available tickets have been sold, is a testament to an artiste’s popularity and the high demand for their performance.

Asake’s achievement of selling out the O2 Arena twice in two years puts him in the same league as international superstars like Beyonce, Spicegirls, Rihanna, and the Rolling Stones, who have also sold out this iconic venue. He also joins the ranks of Davido and Wizkid, who sold out the O2 Arena more than once.

Asake achieved the feat on Saturday when he performed at the 02 Arena as part of his ‘Lungu Boy World Tour’ and made a dramatic entrance via helicopter and thrilled the crowd with his hit tracks, including ‘Olorun’, ‘Omo Ope’ and ‘Amapiano’.
