Simi said on Saturday, November 14, that her December 12 SimiLive concert in Abuja is on hold and that buyers will be refunded. The singer attributed the decision to venue arrangements that had not been completed. She also said her December 5 Lagos show would go ahead at a new venue.<\/p>\n
The change matters to Nigeria’s year-end live business because it leaves Abuja ticket holders needing a refund while keeping the Lagos date in the market. It also shows how a public event listing can lag behind a promoter’s announcement, making the current status of a ticket as important as the original sales page.<\/p>\n
Simi said in a message reported by Punch, The Guardian Nigeria and eelive that the Abuja venue logistics had not come together as she expected. The announced show had been listed for December 12 at 21 Arena in Abuja. Her statement did not give a replacement date.<\/p>\n
She said all purchased Abuja tickets would be refunded and directed buyers to Partyverse, the ticketing service. That is a promise of reimbursement, not evidence that refunds have already reached buyers. The reports reviewed for this article do not give a processing deadline or describe whether buyers will receive money automatically or must submit a request. Ticket holders should follow the seller’s official instructions and retain their purchase confirmation.<\/p>\n
Simi’s Abuja ticket page was still indexed with the December 12 date when this desk searched on November 15, but the page itself returned a 404 error when opened. The current page therefore cannot be treated as an active offer or proof that the concert is still scheduled. The singer’s newer announcement is the relevant status update.<\/p>\n
The Lagos show remains scheduled for December 5. Simi said it has moved to Livespot Entertarium, with doors at 6 p.m. Her live ticket page, checked on November 15, separately lists the December 5 date and Livespot Entertainment Center in Ikate Lekki. The venue names differ slightly between the announcement and listing, so Lagos buyers should use the latest official event instructions for the precise entry point.<\/p>\n
The Lagos listing showed an entry ticket priced at \u20a630,000 on November 15. That is an advertised price, not a count of tickets sold or a measure of demand. Neither Simi’s statement nor the ticket page discloses Abuja sales, venue costs or the financial effect of the postponement.<\/p>\n
