Lagos to Host 2026 Edition of Prestigious Nigerian Sports Awards

Organisers of one of Nigeria’s biggest sports recognition events have confirmed that this year’s ceremony will take place on March 28 in Lagos. The event, now in its sixth year, will celebrate outstanding achievers and contributors across the country’s sporting landscape, with several categories of honours up for grabs.

Planning for the awards has been underway for months, with committee officials working to finalise both the venue and the list of honourees. The venue for the 2026 ceremony is the Lagos Country Club in Ikeja, chosen for its prestige and capacity to host a high-profile gathering.

Organisers say the honourees will represent individuals and organisations that have made significant impacts in sports development, innovation, and leadership. While the full list of recipients has not yet been released, fans and participants are eagerly awaiting the announcement of winners.

Officials also emphasised that the awards aim to uphold credibility and celebrate genuine excellence. With new additions to the programme this year, the ceremony is expected to be one of the most memorable editions to date, drawing leaders, athletes, and stakeholders from across the Nigerian sports community.
