The Nigerian Box Office has crossed the N10 billion mark in 2025, recording 1.84 million admissions so far this year.
According to statistics released on August 31, the figure represents a significant jump from 2024’s N6.4 billion earnings and 1.59 million admissions. This translates to a 58% increase in revenue and a 16% hike in admissions.
Driving the surge are titles such as Muyiwa Ademola’s Ori: Rebirth, Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, Reel Love, and Toyin Abraham’s Iyalode, which have dominated the charts in recent months.
Industry analysts speculate that admissions could hit the 3 million mark before the end of the year, setting a new milestone for Nollywood and reinforcing the growing appetite for Nigerian films.
