Audiomack, the global music streaming service, has announced a partnership with Felabration 2026, the annual festival honoring Fela Anikulapo-Kuti and the Afrobeat genre. The festival, running from October 13 to 19 in Lagos, will now include exclusive VIP access for Audiomack+ subscribers, including new subscribers who sign up during the festival week.
VIP Seats and Exclusive Merchandise
Audiomack+ subscribers can claim one of the limited VIP seats and receive exclusive Audiomack x Felabration merchandise. The offer is on a first-come, first-served basis. To claim the VIP experience, subscribers must sign up for Audiomack+ before or during the festival and then visit the Audiomack stand at the venue, where a representative will escort them into the VIP area on festival nights, subject to availability.
Felabration has been a cornerstone of Afrobeat culture for nearly three decades, traditionally held at the New Afrika Shrine. The event has featured a range of performers, from emerging artists to established stars like Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy. Audiomack is extending the festival's spirit online with a curated Felabration playlist that spans Fela's original recordings to contemporary artists influenced by his sound.
Fela's Legacy and Afrobeat's Global Reach
“Afrobeat sits at the root of so much of the African music the world is dancing to right now, and Fela is a big reason why,” said Charlotte Bwana, Vice President of Marketing at Audiomack. “Our Felabration playlist is an open door back to the source. For our Audiomack+ subscribers, we wanted to go further and put them in the room where the culture lives.”
The partnership marks the first in a series of experiences Audiomack plans to offer its Audiomack+ members. Additional perks, including live events and exclusive drops, are expected to be announced in the future. The Felabration 2026 playlist is now available for streaming on Audiomack.
