Things to Do Near Nike Art Gallery Lekki — Production Studios, Events & More
Visiting Nike Art Gallery in Lekki Phase 1? Here's what else to do on Nike Art Gallery Road — from world-class production studios to event spaces, all within walking distance.
Nike Art Gallery is one of the most visited landmarks in Lagos. Located on Nike Art Gallery Road in Lekki Phase 1, it draws thousands of visitors every month — art lovers, tourists, corporate groups, and creatives passing through the city. It's a must-see, and for good reason.
But once you've walked the galleries, what's next?
Nike Art Gallery Road has quietly become one of the most important creative corridors in Lagos. And right next door, at 16A Nike Art Gallery Road, sits a facility most visitors never expect to find: a 3,500+ square foot production studio and event space with infrastructure that rivals anything in London or Atlanta.
The Freeme Space: Next Door to Nike Art Gallery
The Freeme Space is literally on the same road as Nike Art Gallery — a 2-minute walk. But while the gallery showcases finished art, The Freeme Space is where art gets made.
The facility houses four distinct production spaces:
- •Main Soundstage — A 1,760 sq ft double-volume black-box venue with two P3 LED video walls included in every booking. This is where music videos, commercials, fashion shows, and corporate events happen. Capacity: 400-450 standing.
- •Dolby Atmos 7.1.4 Suite — One of the only commercial Dolby Atmos studios in Lagos. A 316 sq ft acoustically treated room with HECO speakers for immersive audio mixing, mastering, and spatial audio production.
- •Podcast Studio — A broadcast-quality 3-camera setup with Rodecaster Pro, professional lighting, and a dedicated green room. Walk in, sit down, record.
- •Event Lounge — A private 50-person VIP space for receptions, screenings, listening parties, and intimate corporate events. Connects directly to the main soundstage.
What makes it different from other studios in Lagos? Two words: guaranteed power. The Freeme Space runs zero-blink infrastructure with dual generators (200kVA + 150kVA) and solar backup. No interruptions. Ever. The facility also maintains a guaranteed 18°C temperature — critical for both equipment performance and guest comfort.
A Day on Nike Art Gallery Road
Here's how creatives and corporate groups are spending a full day in the area:
Morning: Nike Art Gallery
Start at the gallery. It's the largest collection of Nigerian art in the country — over 8,000 works across multiple floors. The building itself is an experience. Allow 1-2 hours to explore properly. Pieces are available for purchase, and the gallery frequently hosts exhibitions and cultural events.
Afternoon: Production at The Freeme Space
Walk next door to 16A Nike Art Gallery Road. Whether you're shooting a music video on the soundstage, recording a podcast episode in the broadcast studio, or mixing a track in the Dolby Atmos suite — this is where the creative work happens.
Corporate groups increasingly book the facility for off-site meetings, product launches, and brand activations. The event lounge works perfectly for VIP receptions before or after gallery visits.
Evening: Lekki Phase 1 Dining
The broader Lekki Phase 1 area offers plenty of dining options within a short drive — from local favourites to international restaurants. The Freeme Space's central location on Nike Art Gallery Road puts you minutes from all of them.
Why Location Matters for Production
For brands and agencies planning shoots or events in Lagos, location isn't just about convenience — it's about talent access. Lekki Phase 1 is where many of Lagos's top creatives live and work. Booking a studio on Nike Art Gallery Road means your talent, crew, and clients can get there without battling mainland traffic.
The Freeme Space also offers secure gated parking for 15-20 vehicles — a serious advantage in an area where parking can be a challenge.
