Davido Shuts Down Minneapolis with Sold-Out 5ive Alive Tour Stop

Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Davido lit up the Armory in Minneapolis on Friday night with a sold-out concert that marked one of the most electric stops yet on his ongoing 5ive Alive Tour.

The crowd of over 8,000 fans was treated to high-energy performances of fan-favorite hits like “Aye,” “Fem,” and “With You,” as Davido delivered his signature blend of infectious rhythms, smooth vocals, and boundless charisma.

The atmosphere inside the historic downtown venue was electric, with fans dancing, singing along, and waving Nigerian flags deep into the night.

In true Davido fashion, the night wasn’t just about music—it was also about giving back. In one of the most talked-about moments of the evening, the superstar surprised an audience member with a $5,000 cash gift, reportedly for perfectly singing along to one of his hits.

The gesture drew thunderous applause and instantly went viral on social media, underscoring the artist’s deep connection with his fanbase.

Minneapolis is the latest stop on the 5ive Alive Tour, which has already seen successful shows in cities like Houston, Atlanta, and New York. With each performance, Davido continues to reaffirm his place as one of Afrobeats’ most electrifying global ambassadors.

The tour rolls on across the U.S. through August before heading to international stages in Europe and Africa.
