Burna Boy in the Caribbean

Burna Boy, the award-winning musical virtuoso, will be the pulsating heart of Spilligate’23. 

Last year, the Grammy Award-winning Nigerian superstar Burna Boy brought his Love Damini tour to the Caribbean islands of Trinidad, Antigua, and Jamaica in December.

The concert took place in Trinidad on December 16 at the Hasely Crawford Stadium in Port of Spain, Antigua on December 17 at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, and his last stop was in Jamaica on December 18 at the National Stadium in Kingston.

Burna Boy is the first African artiste ever to headline a stadium in these Caribbean islands. 

Renowned for his genre-blurring artistry, Burna Boy seamlessly melds Afrobeat, Reggae, and Pop into a sonic tapestry that transcends boundaries and captivates audiences worldwide.
