Where to stay for WHX Lagos (formerly Medic West Africa) 2027: the closest hotels to Landmark Centre, Victoria Island are in Victoria Island and Ikoyi, with Lekki Phase 1 a short ride away. The fair runs 1 June to 3 June 2027 and rooms near the venue sell out first, so book a free-cancellation rate early. Pay Weekly lets you split your hotel over up to 16 weeks.
WHX Lagos, formerly Medic West Africa, is held at the Landmark Centre on Victoria Island in Lagos, Nigeria, with the 2027 edition scheduled for June. It is a leading healthcare and medical trade exhibition for West Africa, covering medical equipment, diagnostics, hospital supplies, laboratory products and healthcare services, and it draws manufacturers, distributors, clinicians, hospital administrators and buyers from Nigeria and the wider region. The show fills the Landmark Centre's exhibition space and attracts a strong regional trade audience over its run, alongside a conference programme for healthcare professionals. Because the Landmark Centre sits in the busy Victoria Island business district and Lagos has a limited concentration of international-standard hotels, rooms on and around Victoria Island and neighbouring Ikoyi book out early, and near-venue rates rise as the opening approaches. Booking accommodation ahead keeps commuting short in a city known for heavy traffic, protects a full schedule of meetings, and avoids long, unpredictable journeys across the lagoon bridges. Event Escapes shows live, bookable hotel rates around the Landmark Centre, sorted by real distance from the venue so you can compare genuine proximity rather than relying on broad area descriptions.
Popular areas for attendees: Victoria Island · Ikoyi · Lekki Phase 1.

Pay Weekly: common questions
Do I pay any interest?
No. There is no interest and no extra charge. Your plan total is exactly the hotel price shown when you book. The only fee we ever charge is a processing fee on cash refunds (see 'What fees apply?').
How many payments can I make?
Depending on how far away your trip is, you can split your booking into between 2 and 16 weekly payments. The exact schedule is shown before you book.
What happens after I pay my deposit?
Your hotel is booked and confirmed immediately. You receive your booking confirmation and your full payment schedule by email, and the remaining payments are charged automatically each week.
How are the weekly payments taken?
Automatically. After your first payment, each weekly payment is charged to your saved card, and we send you a reminder 2 days before every charge. In a few countries where automatic card charges are not allowed, we email you a secure payment link each week instead. You can switch to a different card at any time.
Can I pay early?
Yes. Sign in to your Event Escapes account at any time and pay off your remaining balance in one payment, whenever it suits you. There is never a fee for paying early.
What happens if I miss a payment?
We retry your card automatically and email you a secure payment link so you can pay another way, plus a final notice with one link to clear the remaining balance. If the plan still cannot be completed, we cancel the room before its free-cancellation deadline and everything you have paid goes into your Event Escapes Wallet in full. You never lose the money you have paid. You can turn that credit into a cash refund at any time (the processing fee applies).
Where to eat during WHX Lagos (formerly Medic West Africa)
Trade-fair days run at Tafawa Balewa Square on Lagos Island, but every serious business dinner happens across the bridge on Victoria Island, Ikoyi or Lekki, where the corporate hotels sit. Budget 15-25 minutes by car to VI/Ikoyi and 30-60 to Lekki depending on the notorious Lagos traffic, so book a driver and leave early.

Open in Google MapsGetting there
From Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS)
- Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS) is Lagos's gateway, and transfers to Victoria Island can take 45-90 minutes or more depending on notorious Lagos traffic.
- Arrange an airport pickup through your hotel or a trusted operator in advance rather than seeking transport on arrival.
- Allow generous buffer time in both directions, as travel times across the mainland-to-island route are highly variable.
Getting around during WHX Lagos (formerly Medic West Africa)
Getting around Lagos and to the venue
- Victoria Island and neighbouring Ikoyi are compact, so a hotel near the Landmark Centre can keep you within a short, reliable ride of the venue.
- Use hotel cars or reputable ride-hailing (Bolt, Uber) rather than unmetered street taxis, and confirm the route in advance.
- Lagos traffic is heavy and unpredictable; plan meetings with wide time margins and avoid non-essential cross-lagoon trips at peak hours.
