LONDON—One Africa Fest 2017 is here.

The star-studded event gathers some of the biggest names in contemporary African music—Tiwa Savage, Jidenna, Cassper Nyovest, Davido and many more—on one stage to perform their hits.

Newly married Naija actor and musician, Banky W., is back for the second time to host this year's showcase. It's all going down at the SSE Arena in Wembley, London.

Last year's show in New York City was a blast, and this year is shaping up to be just as unforgettable. If you can't make it to the festival this year, though, fret not—you can stream the entire event below,  via Tidal. The livestream starts at 7:00 pm (GMT) on Saturday (May 13).
