    Different Personalities You’ll Meet at Every December Party in Lagos

    There are certain people you’re guaranteed to meet when navigating the Lagos nightlife during the holidays.

    It does not matter if you’re at a major beach concert, a rooftop bar, a house party, or Detty December Fest. The faces may change, but somehow, the personalities remain exactly the same. As you plan your calendar for the ultimate Lagos December guide, look out for these iconic characters.

    The Ultimate Guide to Lagos Detty December Personalities

    1. The Planner

    This person has been preparing for December in Lagos since October. They know which Lagos events they’re attending, what they’re wearing, how much tickets cost, and what time everyone needs to leave. While everyone else is saying, “We’ll see how it goes,” they’ve already mapped out the venue, traffic, and tables.

    2. The “I’m Not Really Doing December” Person

    Please ignore everything they say. They’ll spend November talking about staying home, saving money, and resting. But by December 20, they’ve bought a new outfit and are asking for the next concert lineup. Nobody knows when the transformation happened. It just did.

    3. The Social Butterfly

    They came with three people and somehow know everybody else at the venue. Give them ten minutes and they’ve greeted the DJ, spoken to the host, and introduced your group to another table. They are the definition of the Lagos party scenelifestyle.

    4. The Foodie

    They’re not here to pretend food is secondary. Before asking who is performing on stage, they want to know what the vendors are serving. At Detty December Fest, they’ll probably be the first person checking out the food courts.

    5. The Photographer

    Nobody knows when they became the official documentarian of the friendship, but they take the job seriously. Their phone storage may be fighting for its life, but their pictures are the reason your Instagram feed looks amazing all through the holidays.

    6. The One Who Came for One Hour

    They were tired. They were “only stopping by.” Suddenly, it’s 2:00 AM and they’re still on the dance floor like they didn’t announce their departure four hours ago.

    7. The Responsible One

    They’re enjoying the festivities, but they’re also keeping an eye on everyone. They know who needs a ride home and when it is probably time to call an Uber. Every December crew needs one to survive the season.

    Why Detty December Fest is the Ultimate Holiday Experience

    The funny thing is, most people are a combination of several of these personalities. The Planner can become The One Who Came for One Hour, and the person who swore they were staying home will become the life of the party by week two.

    That is part of what makes things to do in Lagos in December so unique. The city comes alive with unmatched energy. If you want to experience all of these personalities in one place, Detty December Fest, running from December 18–30, is the absolute center of the season’s entertainment.

    So, which personality are you bringing to the party?
