The venue of the 2022 edition of Nigeria’s popular music award show, The Headies, has been moved to the United States of America.
The award show is set to take place at the COBB Energy Performing Arts Center in Atlanta, USA.
This was disclosed by the show’s creator, Ayo Animashaun, during The Headies Big Announcement event, which aired via HipTV on Tuesday.
The event, which is scheduled to hold on Saturday, July 2, 2022, would be hosted by actress Nancy Isime and include performances by dancer, Kaffy and singer, Goya Menor.
