Nigerian singer and songwriter Adekunle Gold is set to return to London for a special performance at Blue Note London, with the singer announced for two shows on November 23 and 24, 2026.<\/p>\n
The upcoming concerts will see Adekunle Gold bring his Afrobeats-driven sound to one of London\u2019s renowned jazz venues, continuing his growing relationship with international audiences and genre-crossing live performances.<\/p>\n
According to Ticketmaster UK, Adekunle Gold is scheduled to perform at Blue Note London on November 23 and 24, with two performances each night at 7:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Tickets are scheduled to enter general sale on October 2, following presales beginning September 30.<\/p>\n
The announcement has also been described by music publication Album Talks as a landmark moment, with the outlet reporting that Adekunle Gold will become the first Afrobeats artist to perform at the iconic venue. That distinction has not yet been independently confirmed by Blue Note London in the sources reviewed.<\/p>\n
The London dates add another international chapter to Adekunle Gold\u2019s career, particularly his increasing embrace of live arrangements that connect Afrobeats with other musical traditions.<\/p>\n
The singer previously made history at the EFG London Jazz Festival, where he performed with the Guildhall Session Orchestra at Royal Festival Hall. That performance was held on November 23, 2025, and was described by the festival as a one-off orchestral appearance.<\/p>\n
Adekunle Gold\u2019s upcoming Blue Note shows will therefore offer a different setting for the singer, placing his music within the intimate atmosphere of one of London\u2019s established jazz venues.<\/p>\n
Blue Note London is located on Saint Martin\u2019s Lane in central London, and the November performances are listed as general-admission events featuring Adekunle Gold as the sole billed artist.<\/p>\n
The shows come as Adekunle Gold continues to expand the international reach of his music while drawing from Afrobeats, highlife, Fuji and other Nigerian influences. His ability to adapt his catalogue to different live formats has increasingly become part of his global artistic identity.<\/p>\n
With the November performances now officially listed, London fans will have another opportunity to experience Adekunle Gold in a more intimate live setting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
