Over the years, several Nigerian artists have made their mark at the festival, including D’Banj, Davido, Tiwa Savage, Rema, Asake, Shallipopi, and Ruger. Burna’s return adds to the growing influence of Afrobeats on the international music scene.

Drake, who last headlined Wireless in 2014, has a strong history with the festival. In 2018, he made a surprise appearance with UK rapper Giggs, stepping in for DJ Khaled, who pulled out due to travel issues. With Burna Boy and Drake sharing the spotlight, Wireless 2025 is shaping up to be an unforgettable event.

General tickets go on sale on February 19 at 12 PM GMT via wirelessfestival.co.uk.
