Main international gateway for Lagos. Confirm your arrival terminal and arrange a hotel transfer or reputable ride-hailing pickup before departure
Approx. 20-25 km from Landmark Centre, Victoria Island
to venue
Approx. 45-75 minutes depending on Lagos traffic
by car
A range of accommodation options near the venue and across key areas.
Victoria Island 4-star business hotels

Larger international-standard rooms, restaurants and meeting spaces. Confirm shuttle or taxi arrangements for show days.
Ikoyi business hotels
Quieter district with good restaurants and embassies. Allow 20-40 minutes by car depending on traffic.
Lagos Island midrange hotels
Budget-friendly base but requires bridge crossings. Plan extra time for peak-hour traffic to Victoria Island.
Lekki Phase 1 serviced apartments
Useful for longer stays and teams. Confirm security, power backup and the daily route to Victoria Island.
Ikeja mainland hotels
Convenient for the airport but not for daily show attendance. Allow 45-90 minutes each way depending on traffic.
Get around the city with these convenient transport options.
Taxi / ride-hailing
Captured hotels are 0.7-0.9 km from the venue, so walking or a very short taxi ride is practical.
City bus routes
Lagos route maps are available on public transport route sites; plan around peak traffic.
taxi

Approx. 45-75 minutes depending on Lagos traffic; Main international gateway for Lagos. Confirm your arrival terminal and arrange a hotel transfer or reputable ride-hailing pickup before departure.
Weather
Lagos in mid-to-late May is hot and humid with peak rainy-season downpours (about 27 rain days in the month). Build buffer time into transfers and keep documents in a waterproof bag.
Plan for the climate
Check temperatures and pack accordingly
Venue connectivity
Confirm mobile roaming or local SIM options for business visitors to Nigeria; venue hotels near Landmark Centre advertise free Wi-Fi, so plan data around hotel access.
Ride-hailing
Taxis
Public transit
Car rentals
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Business etiquette
Nigerian water-sector meetings often begin with introductions and a few minutes of relationship-building before technical discussion. Use titles such as Engineer or Dr where known, shake hands with everyone in the room and keep a relaxed but professional tone. Punctuality matters for scheduled meetings, but traffic can delay local counterparts; confirm times by phone or message.
Money and payments
The local currency is the Nigerian naira (NGN). Major hotels and upscale restaurants usually accept cards, but smaller vendors and transport may prefer cash. Notify your bank before travel, carry a modest amount of naira for daily expenses and ask your hotel about reliable card or ATM options nearby.
Safety and getting around
Use hotel-arranged transport or reputable ride-hailing apps for airport transfers and evening trips. Avoid displaying valuables and keep a digital and paper copy of your passport and hotel address. Lagos traffic is heavy, so build buffers around meetings and allow extra time on rainy days.
Weather in May
Mid-to-late May falls in Lagos's rainy season, with hot, humid days and a high chance of heavy downpours. Pack breathable business wear, a compact umbrella or rain jacket and a waterproof bag for documents and devices. Rain can slow road transfers, so keep schedule buffers.
Entry and health formalities
Check the Nigeria Immigration Service and your nearest Nigerian embassy or consulate for current visa, e-visa and yellow-fever certificate rules. Requirements vary by nationality and can change, so confirm before booking flights. Carry printed copies of invitations, hotel bookings and return tickets for arrival checks.
Practical guides
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Destination: LOS
Compare flights to the nearest international gateway serving Lagos; confirm ground transport on the organiser site.
Most foreign business visitors require a Nigerian visa; the Nigeria Immigration Service lists a Business (Single Entry) Visa (F4A) route, and applications can be checked through the visa portal at visa.immigration.gov.ng.
Confirm the correct visa category, invitation letter requirements and e-visa or visa-on-arrival eligibility with the Nigeria Immigration Service or your nearest Nigerian mission before booking travel.
OfficialGet to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS): Approx. 45-75 minutes depending on Lagos traffic. Allow road or rail time to Landmark Centre; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Landmark Centre: Victoria Island and Oniru: Victoria Island 4-star business hotels; Victoria Island: Victoria Island 5-star international hotels; Ikoyi: Ikoyi business hotels.
Ride-hail: Ride-hailing apps are commonly used in Lagos; confirm local availability before travel.
Public transit: Lagos has limited rail coverage and no metro station at Landmark Centre's doorstep; the Blue Line corridor serves Marina to Mile 2 and is not a direct show shuttle. Most business visitors use ride-hailing apps (Bolt, Uber and local operators) or hotel taxis between Victoria Island hotels and the venue. Short ride-hailing trips within Victoria Island are commonly in the region of NGN 3,000-10,000, while BRT bus and danfo minibus fares are lower, often around NGN 500-1,500 for short routes; these are approximate planning figures, so confirm live fares in the app or with your hotel. Allow 30-60 minutes for cross-island trips during peak traffic and keep a small amount of cash for public transport.
Parking: On-site parking is available at Landmark Centre; confirm daily rates and hall access on the organiser or venue site.
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: May 2027
Temperature: May daily highs around 29 C with warm, humid nights; heat index feels higher on the Victoria Island waterfront.
Seasonality: May falls in Lagos's rainy season: roughly 27 rain days in the month, so expect frequent heavy afternoon downpours and high humidity.
Packing: Pack light breathable business wear, a compact umbrella or rain shell, and quick-dry footwear for wet pavements; carry water and expect humid show-floor conditions.
