Returning after a seven-year hiatus, LG InnoFest is the company’s signature regional event for key partners and media.

AI Core-Tech Powers Next-Generation Clothing Care Solutions

LG is strengthening its residential laundry lineup for the MEA with appliances that combine larger capacities, premium design and proprietary AI Core-Tech.

The latest models deliver a more intelligent and efficient washing and drying experience with features such as AI Wash and AI Dry.

The lineup is led by the award-winning 29-inch LG SIGNATURE WashCombo, a premium all-in-one washer-dryer with the world’s largest capacity.

LG also showcases an expanded LG WashTower lineup, introducing a new 25-inch model alongside existing 24-inch and 27-inch versions to support a wider range of installation environments. LG WashTower products integrate a separate washer and dryer into a single vertical structure to improve usability and space efficiency.

Making its debut at InnoFest, the new 27-inch WashCombo is ideal for larger households with its impressive 25-kilogram washing capacity and 21-kilogram drying capacity.

Equipped with LG’s DUAL Inverter HeatPump technology, the model is designed to support stable, effective drying performance and enhanced energy efficiency.

LG’s laundry solution range also includes a new front-load washer with a sleek, flat design, an integrated LCD display, and the company’s advanced AI Direct Drive (AI DD) motor, which optimizes washing performance based on load weight and fabric characteristics.

Leveraging its considerable expertise in residential laundry, LG is also presenting solutions for the commercial laundry sector. These include app- and API-based solutions that provide partners with robust tools for remote monitoring and management.

With diverse options to suit any lifestyle, LG’s fridge lineup at InnoFest 2026 MEA reinforces the company’s status as the No.1 refrigerator brand in the region.

One of the highlights of the company’s cooking appliance showcase, the flagship SolarDOM All-in-One Microwave Oven has received its first full redesign in more than a decade.

The new model adopts a subtle semi-built-in design and replaces the physical buttons with a 2.4-inch LCD interface.

Cooking convenience has been enhanced with up to 60 Auto Cook menus, along with newly added functions such as Air Fry. Wi-Fi connectivity enables remote monitoring and control through the LG ThinQ app.

The latest dishwasher lineup features QuadWash Pro, an advanced technology that creates jets of micro‑scale air bubbles to enhance cleaning performance and shorten wash cycles, delivering gleaming glasses and spotless dishes in less time.

AI SenseClean technology automatically adjusts wash times and rinse cycles based on the level of contamination to ensure optimal results.

With all these upgrades, the 1‑Hour Wash & Dry function will be available with full coverage, enabling users to complete a full wash-and-dry cycle in as little as 39 minutes.

The initiative, themed “The Oldest LG TV”, seeks to honour long-time customers whose LG screens have stood the test of time, while introducing them to the future of home entertainment through LG’s advanced AI QNED TVs.

For generations, LG televisions have been more than an electronic device in Nigerian homes, they have been silent witnesses to family milestones, cultural moments and shared memories.

This campaign bridges nostalgia with innovation, acknowledging the emotional connection Nigerians have built with the brand while showcasing LG’s leadership in AI-powered display technology.

The campaign features a storytelling -driven narrative that highlights community, heritage and the evolution of viewing experiences. Participants are invited to share the stories behind their long-serving LG TVs, transforming everyday screens into symbols of trust, resilience and innovation.

In creative twist, the campaign also introduces LG’s AI-enabled televisions as responsive companions that understand viewer preferences, recommend content and enhance picture quality in real time. This shift from nostalgia to futuristic interactivity underscores LG’s continued commitment to delivering smarter, more personalized entertainment solutions.

To participate, simply visit https://lgsearchcampaign.vercel.app/ upload a photo or video of your old LG TV and share the story behind it – how long you’ve had it and the memories it holds.

The winner walks away with a brand-new LG AI QNED TV, effectively trading legacy for luxury.

At its core, this campaign reminds us that technology is not only about pixels and processors, but about people. It’s about the laughter in the living rooms, the silence during tense match moments and the comfort of family routines.

By celebrating the oldest TVs still standing strong, LG is celebrating the people who kept the on, families who trusted the brand through changing times and evolving technologies. In doing so, LG isn’t just upgrading television, it’s upgrading memories into the future.

According to Mr. Choongbae Seok, General Manager, Media Entertainment Solutions, LG Electronics Nigeria,

“The journey from our classic CRT Televisions to today’s AI QNED technology reflects how far both our customers and our innovation have come. Those early sets were built to last, and many are still functioning today, a testament to durability and consumer trust. This initiative allows us to honour that legacy while introducing a new era of intelligent viewing, where the screen does more than show content; it adapts, learns and enhances every moment”.
