It’s been a year of open doors and global recognition for gospel sensation Esther Igbekele! From sold-out concerts in the U.S. to spirit-filled ministrations in Europe, the anointed singer has been on a mission to spread her music and ministry far and wide — and 2025 has clearly been her year of divine success.
After years of consistency and hard work, Esther’s brand has reached new heights. Her international movement to promote her music has seen her ministering across borders, touching hearts, and winning souls with her powerful voice and inspiring lyrics.
In September, she kicked off her U.S. tour, performing in Baltimore, Maryland, New Jersey, and New York. Fans described each concert as a life-changing experience filled with worship, joy, and God’s presence. Although the tour was initially planned to start earlier, some of her shows were rescheduled for 2026 — when she’ll be headlining a mega concert and a church anniversary celebration in the States.
Right after her U.S. engagements, Esther jetted off to Italy to join the Celestial Church of Christ, Ileri Oluwa Parish, Brescia, for their 30th Adult Harvest celebration. Her ministration at the event left worshippers in awe as she filled the atmosphere with praise and thanksgiving.
Still in October, she graced the stage at the London Praise 2025 Concert held at the GAUMONT Palace, U.K., where she performed alongside other gospel greats. It was another moment of glory for the ever-vibrant minister, who continues to fly the Nigerian gospel flag high on international stages.
And she’s not done yet! As the year draws to a close, Esther Igbekele is gearing up for another tour in the U.K. and Nigeria, making sure her music continues to reach both global and local audiences.
From city to city and nation to nation, Esther Igbekele remains unstoppable — a living proof that with passion, grace, and divine favor, the gospel sound can truly travel the world.
