We Sold Out Every Show, Made Millions of Dollars – Davido Celebrates His 5 Alive Tour
Davido, the Afrobeats superstar, recently celebrated a monumental achievement during his ongoing 5 Alive tour across North America. Following his concert at the Merriweather Post Pavilion in Maryland on August 5th, Davido proudly announced that he sold out every show on the tour, performing in 12 venues and generating millions of dollars in revenue.
The tour, which has taken Davido to multiple cities across the United States and Canada, marks a significant milestone in his career and the global spread of Afrobeats music. Notably, Davido sold out prestigious venues like Canada’s Scotia Bank Arena, a 19,000-capacity arena famously known as the home of the Toronto Raptors NBA team. This places him alongside other Nigerian music giants such as Asake, Burna Boy, and Rema, who have also sold out this major venue.

Davido attributed much of his success to faith and perseverance. “If you dream it, it’s possible. With God, everything is possible. With all the odds against me, we made it happen,” he said before cutting a celebratory cake after the Maryland show. His statement reflects both his humility and determination, inspiring fans and aspiring artists alike.
The 5 Alive tour also highlighted a new dimension of Davido’s artistry and stage presence. He credited veteran Nigerian music producer and composer Cobhams Asuquo for redefining his stagecraft, having brought him on board as the tour’s music director. This collaboration has evidently elevated the live performances, adding depth and polish to the shows.
Supporting acts on the tour include rapper OdumoduBlvck, award-winning Afrobeats star Victony, and emerging singer Moravvey, showcasing a blend of established and rising talents in the Afrobeats scene.
The tour supports Davido’s recent release, his fifth studio album titled ‘5ive’. The album and tour continue to cement his status as a leading figure in the global exportation of Afrobeats, a genre that has seen explosive international growth in recent years.
Davido’s North American tour will culminate with a final performance at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta on November 20th, where he will hold his annual AWAY concert. This event is highly anticipated by fans and is expected to be another sold-out success.
In summary, the 5 Alive tour represents a landmark achievement for Davido, both financially and artistically. It underscores his role as a global ambassador for Afrobeats and a powerhouse in the music industry, inspiring countless fans worldwide with his story of ambition, faith, and relentless hard work.
