Spotify and Dencity Amplify Nigeria’s Skateboarding Scene with ‘Skate Noise’
In a lively celebration of music, movement, and community, Spotify’s Skate Noise took place at WAF Park in Lagos on November 16, an event that was all about highlighting the growing skate culture in the city.
Skate Noise is a specially curated playlist and program by Spotify, taken over by Asake and designed to shine a light on Nigeria’s skateboarding scene. This initiative is the result of a collaboration with Dencity, a community-focused organization dedicated to increasing visibility, connection, and empowerment among female skateboarders in Nigeria. Dencity aims to support and uplift women within this exciting sport, creating a more inclusive environment.
At WAF Park, skaters and music fans united for an epic day packed with energy. Local skate crews teamed up with Spotify to create a killer experience filled with DJ sets and live performances. The vibe was electric as everyone enjoyed both the excitement of skateboarding and the accompanying tunes that made it all come alive.
Spotify’s Skate Noise is more proof of a growing community and the importance of supporting and celebrating local talent and initiatives. This collab with Dencity is a big step towards building a vibrant, inclusive skate culture that empowers everyone involved.
By the end of the day, Skate Noise showcased the power of collaboration and the potential for music and skateboarding bringing people together in unexpected and impactful ways.
