Students of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), are set for three days of music, dance, entertainment and talent discovery as Bigi and Fearless Energy Drink, brands of Rite Foods Limited, bring Soundcity OnTour 2026 to the university.
The activation, scheduled for October 7 to 9, 2026, will feature music auditions, dance competitions, games, interactive activities and live entertainment as part of efforts to engage students and provide platforms for emerging talents.
A major attraction of the FUNAAB activation is the Bigi Music Competition, which will give aspiring student artistes an opportunity to compete for a ₦1 million campus prize while showcasing their talents to a wider audience.
The Fearless Dance Competition will also provide student dancers with an opportunity to demonstrate their creativity, originality and performance skills.
The three-day programme will feature a series of campus activities leading to the grand concert on October 9, when Soundcity OnTour will bring live entertainment and youth-focused programming to the university.
Speaking on the initiative, Biola Aransiola, Brand Manager, Bigi, said the platform was designed to give young Nigerians opportunities to express their creativity and advance their talents.
“Young Nigerians are full of talent, creativity and big dreams, and we want to create spaces where they can bring their creativity to life,” Aransiola said.
She added that Soundcity OnTour enables the brands to connect with young people across campuses while creating opportunities for emerging talents to be seen and heard.
The FUNAAB stop is part of the 20-campus Soundcity OnTour 2026 programme, an expansion of the platform’s debut tour of 10 institutions in 2023.
The tour has visited several Nigerian tertiary institutions, including Pan-Atlantic University, Olabisi Onabanjo University, Yaba College of Technology, the University of Lagos, the University of Uyo, the University of Calabar, Obafemi Awolowo University, the University of Port Harcourt, Niger Delta University and Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, among others.
With Bigi focusing on music and emerging artistes and Fearless providing a platform for dance talents, the FUNAAB activation is expected to combine entertainment with opportunities for students to compete, perform, network and showcase their creativity.
Bigi and Fearless Energy Drink are brands of Rite Foods Limited, a Nigerian food and beverage company.
For FUNAAB students, the three-day Soundcity OnTour activation is expected to provide an opportunity to move beyond the audience and take their talents to the stage.
