The energetic pulse of Afrobeat culture reached a new high as Fearless Energy Drink, the premium brand from Rite Foods Limited, officially assumed its role as the exclusive energy drink sponsor for Felabration 2026 on Thursday, October 15, 2026.

The week-long global festival, which honors the legacy of Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, runs from October 12 to October 18, 2026, at the iconic New Afrika Shrine in Ikeja, Lagos. This year's celebration centers around the deeply philosophical and timely theme: "Who Are You?".
