Sweet-Smelling Savour 2026: Christian Music Concert Set to Hold in Derby, UK

Organisers of the annual Sweet-Smelling Savour Christian music concert have announced plans to host the 2026 edition in Derby, United Kingdom.

This year’s event, themed “The Tabernacle,” will bring together gospel music ministers and worshippers for an evening of music, praise and spiritual inspiration.

Sweet-Smelling Savour is an initiative of Mrs Adetola Bademosi-Adanikin, established to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ, support the less privileged and encourage godly living through Christian ministry and outreach.

The 2025 edition of the concert was held in Abuja, Nigeria, in the Federal Capital Territory. For 2026, the organisers are taking the event to the UK as part of their efforts to reach more people through gospel music and worship.

According to a statement issued by the Chairman of the Organising Committee, Olugbenga Adanikin, this year’s concert will feature popular gospel music ministers, including GT Praise, Olaitan Akanmu and Boazy Sax, alongside other ministers of God.

Explaining the vision behind the event, Adanikin said the organising team was committed to spreading God’s Word through music and uplifting souls for His Kingdom.

He noted that the concert would provide an opportunity for people to come together in worship, praise and fellowship.
