UFC superstar, Israel Adesanya is set to swap the Octagon for the stage this weekend as he joins a star-studded lineup at the 2025 Afrosoul Festival, taking place on Saturday, October 11, at Lilyworld, Go Media Stadium Mt Smart in Auckland.
The Nigerian-born fighter, famously known as The Last Stylebender, will perform a live DJ set alongside Randy Sjafrie, marking his debut at a major music festival. Adesanya will share the stage with some of Africa’s biggest stars, including Burna Boy, Victony, and Darkoo, in what promises to be one of the year’s most exciting cultural events.
Afrosoul Festival will also feature performances from Jaydon Lewis, JessB, Raiza Biza, Poppa Jax, Adechoon, D. Matthews, and TK Paradza, bringing together a blend of Afrobeats, soul, hip hop, and dance music to celebrate the diversity of African sounds.
Adesanya’s participation has captured attention across social media, as the UFC champion continues to explore his passion for music and entertainment beyond combat sports.
