About the Event

An Impactful Platform
for Creators

The Watch Music Conference (TWMC) is an annual, multi-day immersive event designed to empower the next generation of creators, industry leaders, and artists across Africa and the global diaspora.

Our Mission

To create a world-class platform that connects emerging African talent with the global music ecosystem — fostering collaboration, opportunity, and cultural exchange.

Our Vision

A future where African music genres — afrobeats, amapiano, alté, gqom, highlife — define global sound, supported by a thriving creator economy.

Our Promise

Every panel, performance, and workshop is designed to deliver measurable impact — career-defining moments, deals, and lifelong networks.

What to expect

TWMC brings together 3,000+ creators, 200+ speakers, and 50+ partner organisations for an electric three-day program of panels, masterclasses, performances, and curated networking.

Our agenda blends strategic conversations with unforgettable nightlife — pairing boardroom-quality industry discussions with the energy of Lagos's most iconic venues.
