Attendees of the inaugural edition of Yudala Zero Gravity – a multi-city digital entertainment concert tagged Yudala Zero Gravity powered by pioneer composite e-commerce outfit, Yudala– are in for the time of their lives as the company has partnered with leading taxi service provider Uber to offer free rides for first time Uber riders to the concert venue.

Yudala Zero Gravity kicks off with a Contemporary Music Blast on Sunday, October 2, at the Landmark Event Centre, Oniru Lagos, from 3pm.

By using the code – YUDALAZEROGRAVITY – every interested first time Uber riders can enjoy a free ride of up to N2500 to the Landmark Event Centre, venue of the concert. To enjoy this offer, the individual would have to download and install the Uber app on a smartphone and then apply the YUDALAZEROGRAVITY code when submitting the trip request.

Interestingly, existing Uber riders are not left out of the mouth-watering offer, as arrangements have been concluded to accommodate this class of customers making their way to the concert venue with special discount packages.

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, Uber Technologies Inc. is an American multinational online transportation network company. It develops, markets and operates the Uber mobile App, which allows consumers with smartphones to submit a trip request, which the software programme then automatically sends to the Uber driver nearest to the consumer, alerting the driver to the location of the customer.

As of August 2016, the service was available in over 66 countries and 507 cities worldwide. The Uber app automatically calculates the fare and transfers the payment to the driver. Since Uber’s launch, several other companies have replicated its business model although not as successful as Uber, a trend that has come to be referred to as “Uberification”.

Currently offering its service in Lagos and Abuja with plans of expanding to other major Nigerian cities in the near future, Uber has quickly become the preferred taxi service for many, with its emphasis on safety, quality of the vehicles and professional drivers endearing the brand to Nigerians.

Yudala Zero Gravity is a three-city dual entertainment event which will feature a Contemporary Music Blast as well as a Rock Gospel Concert in Lagos, Abuja and Enugu.

The action kicks off on Sunday October 2nd 2016 with a Contemporary Music Blast at the Landmark Event Centre, Oniru.

Already, a number of superstar artistes have been confirmed their appearance for the concerts. The list includes Olamide, Iyanya, Phyno, Zoro, Sound Sultan, Flavour, Humble Smith, Naeto C, Cynthia Morgan, David Grey, Ali Baba, Akpororo and many more. Also, a number of premium corporate organisations such as Access Bank, Airtel, Stanbic Bank, HP, Lenovo, InnJoo Mobile, Uber and a host of media organisations including MTV Base, Trace TV, Urban FM, Classic FM, among others are on board as partners.

Yudala Zero Gravity will witness pure acoustics and live performances from the best Nigerian artistes in both genres of music, many of whom will use the platform to launch new tracks. It is a platform to see and hear it first…
