The event will take place at the Tafawa Balewa Square in Onikan, Lagos, from February 15-17, 2024.
The Lagos Motor Show aims to be a comprehensive display of diverse car models. Among its objectives is to offer sponsors, individuals, and corporate entities a straightforward yet impactful platform to showcase their products and services to the public.
