Looking for a Different December Plan? AQUA RAVE Is Heading to Badagry

A December party outside the city

December in Lagos usually means a packed calendar of concerts, parties and social gatherings. There is always somewhere to go, but not every outing has to follow the familiar pattern of spending an evening at a club or attending a party in the city.

AQUA RAVE is taking a different approach with a beach party scheduled for Saturday, December 19, at Rosh Beach Resort in Badagry. Organized by Tourfrik Hangout, the event is planned around music, swimming, games, food, drinks and time to socialize.

The party is scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. and continue until dawn on Sunday, December 20. For people looking to spend part of the festive season somewhere outside their usual surroundings, the beachside location may be one reason to consider it.

Of course, Badagry is not around the corner for everyone in Lagos. The journey, transport arrangements and cost of attendance are worth considering alongside the activities planned for the event.

What can attendees expect?

According to the organizers, AQUA RAVE will combine a beach party with swimming, games, music, food and drinks. The event is also intended to give people an opportunity to meet others and spend time with friends in a relaxed social setting.

The programme is designed for young adults, working professionals, groups of friends and others interested in outdoor leisure and social events. Attendees can plan to come with friends or attend on their own.

The organizers have listed four ticket categories, with prices ranging from ₦25,000 to ₦250,000.

A new event from a team with experience

AQUA RAVE is a new event concept under that name, although the team behind it says it has been involved in organizing social experiences since 2020.

Tourfrik Hangout has worked across different types of gatherings, including beach parties, picnics, house parties and other social events. Femi Emmanuel, an event planner and strategist, has experience in event coordination, brand visibility and community engagement.

The AQUA RAVE concept brings those interests together in a beachside setting. The organizers say they hope to develop it into a recurring lifestyle event, with future editions offering people another reason to gather outside their usual routines.
