Christmas, yuletide, the end of year has stopped being the same. It will never ever be boring again because of the arrival of the Ovation RedCarol.

Now rechristened Ovation Carol & Awards, the event is a gathering of the best and the brightest Africans. An evening of sheer class and colour, with loads of fun, fashion and first-rate entertainment.

The non-religious and non-political event is the brainchild of Ovation International Magazine which has been in the forefront of celebrating Africa and Africans for the past 16 years.

Like Ovation Magazine which is renowned for its qualitative package, the Ovation Carol & Awards offers an evening that is second to none which features celebrity performers and guests from across Africa.

This year, it will also celebrate successful individuals in different spheres of life. To win an Ovation Award diadem, will be the perfect way to celebrate a successful year.

The defining concept of the Ovation Carol & Awards is our intention to inspire. The overall message is hope and through the event Ovation’s intention is to evoke in Nigerians in particular; and Africans in general a sense of belonging.

In addition, it is our aim to imbue the Can-do spirit and raise the consciousness of the continent through this event and that is why our theme is “It’s All About Hope”.

We derive great pride in the immense work Ovation Magazine has done in bringing hope to different young Africans, serving as a link between different nations and a strong bridge between Africans at home and in the Daispora. We believe that we can do same with the platform of the Ovation Carol & Awards.

Every year, we develop a unique theme song that becomes the Christmas anthem. It is usually massively aired on radio, TV and the web.

The event itself is usually beamed live in Nigeria, across Africa, the UK via Ben Television and worldwide via www.ondbox.com. No doubt, tremendous benefits await sponsors of a mega event like the Ovation Carol & Awards.
