2.5m Prize Pool, Free Flights Up for Grabs as 1000 Participants Slug it Out at Last Woman Standing Naija 

A whopping 2.5 million total prize pot and free flight tickets to any destination in Nigeria are up for grabs this holiday season. The organisers of the highly anticipated maiden edition of Last Woman Standing Naija have officially opened registration for the mega event, scheduled for Saturday, December 5, 2026, at the JJT Park, Alausa, Ikeja. Serving as the definitive daytime curtain-raiser for the famous Lagos Detty December itinerary, this unique one-day outdoor gathering is designed strictly as a high-energy fun sports games challenge for women.

Diverging completely from standard, punishing fitness drills or technical athletic bootcamps, the festival focuses purely on nostalgia, sisterhood, and healthy play. The arena will see 1,000 women go head-to-head in classic, crowd-pleasing yard games that guarantee heavy entertainment value for players and spectators alike. Contestants will match wits and willpower across a vibrant lineup of activities, including the Sack Race, Jump Rope Challenge, Hula Hoop Challenge, and the ultimate test of pure focus—the gruelling Deephold Challenge.

The rewards match the grand scale of the festive season. The ultimate champion who outlasts the field will claim the coveted ₦1 Million Star Prize along with the bragging rights of being the first-ever Last Woman Standing. In the true spirit of holiday-giving, the remaining chunk of the ₦2.5 million prize pool is distributed across over 140 consolation prizes for standout participants. Furthermore, you do not even need to compete to win big; audience members and spectators stand a chance to walk away with free flight tickets to any part of Nigeria this festive season, alongside premium branded giveaways just for being in the stands to cheer.

Detailing the economic and social design of the event, Tony Obot, Managing Director of Kandaval Communications, the media company powering the project, noted that the initiative reimagines how festive rewards are distributed.

“When we looked at the Lagos holiday calendar, we saw plenty of night events but very few spaces designed for women to let loose, bond, and win big in a fun, safe, daytime sports environment,” Obot stated. “Last Woman Standing Naija is built around childhood-style games that unlock pure joy and natural competitive spirit. We intentionally raised a total prize structure of ₦2.5 million and threw in domestic flight tickets because we wanted the rewards to be tangible and impactful. Whether you are traveling home to see family or flying out for a holiday break, Kandaval Communications wants to sponsor that journey as our festive gift to you.”

Obot further stressed that inclusivity sits at the core of the festival’s identity. “An event celebrating sisterhood shouldn’t just reward one person. That is why we have over 140 consolation prizes ready, and why a spectator in the crowd has just as good a chance of winning a free flight ticket as a participant in the games arena. If you have the energy, the focus, and the festive spirit, Alausa is the only place you need to be on the first Saturday of December.”

Registration for the event is absolutely free for all participants, but competitive slots are strictly capped at the first 1,000 women who sign up. Both intending contenders and spectators are advised to lock in their access immediately to secure their spot at the biggest daytime spectacle of the season.
