Victoria Garden City (VGC), a name that is now synonymous with planned living and community harmony in Lagos, Nigeria, is turning 30! This November, residents and well-wishers alike will gather to celebrate this milestone anniversary, aptly themed “Celebrating Diversity and Unity.”
Established in 1994, VGC has blossomed into more than just a residential estate; it’s a microcosm of Nigeria itself, a vibrant tapestry woven with threads of diverse cultures, traditions, and backgrounds. For three decades, VGC has fostered an environment where unity thrives, setting a gold standard for secure and harmonious living.
“This 30th anniversary is a testament to the strength of our community and the unique diversity that defines us,” says Lola Bolarinwa, Chairman of the VGC Property Owners and Residents Association (VGCPORA) and a resident for over 20 years.
“We are immensely proud of the legacy we’ve built and look forward to a future where unity and growth continue to be our guiding principles.”
To mark this special occasion, VGC has planned a week-long celebration (November 16th-24th) packed with exciting events for everyone. From a charity walk promoting goodwill to a tree-planting ceremony symbolizing sustainability, the festivities are designed to honour VGC’s heritage and commitment to community values.
Here’s a glimpse of what’s in store:
