Nollywood actor and filmmaker Femi Adebayo has unveiled his entertainment hub, ‘Euphoria 360 Hub’, a film and media production facility in Oregun, Lagos. The facility was commissioned by the Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr Obafemi Hamzat. The ceremony was attended by actors, filmmakers, content creators and other entertainment industry stakeholders. Adebayo’s media production company, Euphoria360 Media Ltd, has made the hub its headquarters.

The ‘Euphoria 360 Hub’ is equipped for cinema-grade film production, events, music videos and other content creation. It also offers sound and post-production services. Speaking at the event, Adebayo said the hub would provide services for video editing, motion graphics, sound design and mixing, and colour grading. The centre will also offer services for visual effects, content distribution, equipment rentals, advertising, public relations and media consultancy.

The hub houses the Euphoria360 Film Academy, which is expected to provide training, workshops, masterclasses, internships and networking opportunities for emerging filmmakers and other creative professionals. Adebayo said the commissioning represents the realisation of a dream that began as a vision. He expressed gratitude to his family, colleagues and supporters who have contributed to the realisation of the project.

Adebayo Salami, father of the filmmaker and a veteran of Yoruba cinema, expressed his pride in his son’s achievement. He said he is deeply proud of what his son has achieved with this project. Seeing his son reach this stage is an emotional and fulfilling moment for him as a father. This achievement is a testament to Adebayo’s hard work, dedication and passion for the creative industry.

The ceremony attracted several notable figures in the Nigerian film industry, including Dele Odule, Yemi Sodimu, Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD), Odunlade Adekola and Kunle Afolayan. The facility had also previously served as a filming location for Davido’s music video “B4 B4”, featuring Mayorkun and FOLA, before its official commissioning.

The studio has produced major Nigerian film projects with a focus on Nigerian stories and Yoruba cultural heritage. With this new facility, Adebayo aims to contribute significantly to the growth and development of the Nigerian film industry. The ‘Euphoria 360 Hub’ is expected to become a major player in the production of high-quality content in Nigeria.

The unveiling of the ‘Euphoria 360 Hub’ marks a significant milestone in Adebayo’s journey as an actor, filmmaker and entrepreneur. The facility is poised to provide a one-stop solution for creatives, offering a range of services under one roof. This development is expected to have a positive impact on the Nigerian entertainment industry, providing new opportunities for filmmakers and content creators.
