Glo Lights Up Banana Island Yuletide Season Celebration

Posted on November 25, 2024

The usually tranquil atmosphere of highbrow Banana Island in Ikoyi Lagos came alive on Saturday night as technology company, Globacom, sponsored the community’s Starlight Night to signal the commencement of the Yuletide season. 

According to the Banana Island Property Owners and Residents Association Lagos (Biporal), which organised the event, the 2024 Starlight Night, the fifth in the series, was an evening to usher in the Yuletide season with families and friends as well as “a day to reflect on how the year has been, and be thankful for where we are under a beautiful weather”.

Globacom said it was delighted to spread the festive cheer by sponsoring the celebration as well as the lighting of a Christmas tree and street light boxes across key locations in Banana Island.

“Christmas is a time for unity, joy, and togetherness, and as a company, we believe in contributing to the communities where we operate. This is our way of giving back and spreading joy and hope to our fellow Nigerians, especially as we prepare to enter the new year.”

The special event brought together local residents, friends, community leaders, and corporate partners, and witnessed electrifying performances by entertainment groups, Art Afrique and SPAN.

Starlight night ended with Christmas fireworks which lit up the sky with dazzling bursts of colour and sparkle, adding a vibrant and festive glow to the celebrations.

The event will culminate in the illumination of street light boxes which will be strategically placed throughout the island’s key streets.

Globacom’s sponsorship of the Starlight Night has added a touch of festive season  to the Banana Island neighbourhood, reinforcing the company’s commitment to bringing joy to Nigerian communities during the festive season.
