The Cityzens are on the road to celebrate with fans in 15 countries, including Nigeria, from July this year and from August 29 to September 1, 2019, they will berth in Lagos.

The trophy tour is sponsored among others by NB Plc’s Star Lager.

Among many other things, this tour will bring an authentic Premiership League football experience to Lagos, just as Star Lager beer will engage passionate football fans in the country with teasers on all digital platforms tagged ‘An Evening with the Champions of England’.

Fans are expected to answer related questions about the club’s feat last season to win a ticket and be part of the unique programme on Sunday. 

Exciting activations and VIP interactions with the trophy and club legend will form the star event at the Heineken House in Ikoyi, Lagos, where Manchester City fans would be treated to an exclusive consumer experience.
