      A place to go from your hotel for some evening music, art, history, food and drink. Best way to get there might be by taxi, if you are not local.

      Freedom Park used to be a real prison with a history, holding some of Nigeria's pillars of the country;s history, as well as 'common' criminals, of course! Today, it is simply the best place in Lagos to get get a feel of the art in an environment that is in itself a totally creative experience. Tucked in the middle of the nerve center area of the city, it is quite easy to feel that one is away from the hustle of everyday Lagos, while there. There are art reviews, music events, book readings, poetry recitations, album launches and reviews, seminars and symposium...really, everything art! The Park is well kept and has clean conveniences. The environment holds a lot of history and sights for tourists and even curious locals. It is a couple of minutes away from other locations of interest such as Obalende, The Marina (and waterfront), Tafawa Balewa Square, Tinubu Square, Balogun Market...and if you'd rather just see a movie; Silverbird Galleria, where you can do all that makes you happy...within legal limits, of course!Oh, I mustn't forget to add that Ade Bantu, a great musician, organises a monthly arty-music African throwdown at this venue. It's called Afropolitan Vibes.Do check to be sure there is an event going on before visiting. Usually, when there are no events, it's just an empty 'space', no activity.

      Absolutely enjoyed myself during the January 2015 edition. Afropolitan vibes is a celebration of live African music which attracts expats and locals. There is a food court with some nice spots that serve vegan, chinese, nigerian cuisine etc.

      Saw a play there- was alright. Liked the native vibe and the cultural references. Wish it was bigger and there was more to see. It was a cool outing- not earth-shattering but pleasant enough.

      I was here on the wrong day, and maybe at the wrong time. came with friends in the afternoon, nothing seems to be happening on that day, so if you are planning to come, make sure there is an event its at lagosfreedompark.com. As a result, we spent most of our time at the museum that had arts about the origin of Lagos, and how slaves were imprisoned.

      Freedom Park holds a lot of History and now a place of fun. This is one place you can bring the family for a weekend retreat both for shows, stage performances and relaxation. Plenty of food stands and ideal for vegetarians as well with the veggie Bar at the park. Plenty for art lovers too.

      Interesting site on the same place as the colonial prison. Includes some very interesting history. Also a quite decent "food court".The pizzas were good but took quite long (1½ hour for 4 pizzas!)

      Once a month Freedom Park hosts Afropolitan Vibes - a great evening of music, beer, dancing and fun. It's always packed...locals and expats... Great place to hang out during the day too.

      This place is a must for every lagosian and foreigner who reminisce about the days of good bars that have good food and life music. It is in the heart of Lagos island and very safe atmosphere, everyone is there to have fun and it is not pretentious. Just come and enjoy the best BBQ fish and nigerian finger foods. It is a good introduction to nigerian music for there is always something artistic happening and lots of music from professionals and amateurs.

      Finally, an alternative hangout spot in Lagos. My first time here was to watch a couple of plays doing the Lagos Theatre Festival. I have been here several times after that for the Afropolitan Vibes (hosted by Ade Bantu and featuring other artistes once in a while) held every third Friday of the month. Though, I'm not much of a crowd person, many people seem to thoroughly enjoy the concert.From the aesthetic perspective, the park itself is lovely with statues representing traditional nigerian occupations. Though I have never been in, I have heard that the museum is lovely. Food isn't allowed in but there are a number of food stalls serving an array of food and drinks. I particularly enjoy the asun and palm wine. A 200 naira gate fee is paid at entry but it's a pittance compared to the amount of fun one can get from chilling in the park at anytime of the day. Despite being right smack in the middle of Lagos Island, the park is relatively safe and is a choice spot for many expatriates.
