Davido at Merriweather Post Pavilion

The 5IVE Alive Tour 2025

Merriweather Post Pavilion is one of the premier venues of the city, and the only place to see your favorite shows and eclectic experiences as they come to Maryland all summer long. Located in the heart of Columbia - the vibe of Merriweather is immersive even before the music starts. Loads of green space, drink and food options, and longstanding installations are spread across the Pavilion grounds for all to enjoy as you wait for your favorite artist to take the stage and woo the crowd with their live sounds. Davido adds another star to our legacy banner - bringing his 2025 5ive Alive Tour to the stage for all of our listening and viewing pleasure. Hitting twelve stages and cities across North America, the tour has been going all summer long and will continue into the deep fall time - stopping on stages like the Los Angeles Kia Forum, Houston’s Toyota Center, Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn, the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, The Ogden Theatre in Denver, and of course - right here at Merriweather in the heat of the summer on August 5th. 

Davido isn’t a secret to the main stage and pop music stardom, especially if you love Afrobeats and R&B. With collaborations like Chris Brown, Popcaan, Akon, and Young Thug up and down his catalogue - you’ve probably even heard him before when you didn’t realize it, and slightly bobbed your head and vibed out to the entire song too. Davido, born in Atlanta and with deep Africana roots, popped onto the scene in 2010 and rose to international fame after his 2012 Dami Duro release. Consistently ranked as one of the most influential artists in the genre and in popular culture at large, it's safe to say Davido has perfected his sound with 5ive records now under his belt - and has continued to deliver us some of the best dance tracks in popular music with each single he releases. He boasts over 10 million monthly listeners across all streaming platforms, and has sold out shows in London’s O2 Arena, Madison Square Garden, The Fifa World Cup Closing Ceremony, and the Global Citizen Festival in South Africa. With every stage that Davido performs on - he further pushes Africana music into the mainstream, brings his personal brand and life story to the public eye, and consistently gives fans his all. And we’re so ready to continue that legacy here at Merriweather this August. 

You won’t want to miss this one, folks! Grab your tickets today - right now - and let’s get ready for the party! We’ll see you soon, right here at Merriweather Pavilion on August 5th!
