The organisers of the Headies Awards have announced that the 18th edition of Nigeria’s premier music awards will be held in Toronto, Canada, marking another step in the event’s international expansion. Speaking during the unveiling ceremony in Lagos, Headies founder, Ayo Animashaun, revealed that while the main awards ceremony will take place in Toronto, a live watch party and interactive viewing experience will simultaneously be held in Lagos to ensure Nigerian fans remain actively involved. The event will also feature the inaugural Trade and Investment Summit aimed at fostering collaboration between the entertainment industry, investors, businesses, and policymakers. The announcement drew support from stakeholders, including Carlos Rojas-Arbulu, who praised the global influence of Nigerian music and highlighted the growing presence of Afrobeats stars in Canada. Organisers also addressed concerns from the previous edition regarding the shortage of award plaques, attributing the issue to counterfeit products supplied by a new vendor. The Headies previously hosted two consecutive editions in Atlanta before returning to Lagos in 2025, and now aims to further elevate the global reach of Afrobeats through its Toronto edition.
