Kampala Capital City Authority’s Executive Director Jennifer Musisi announced that the Kampala City Festival slated for 5th October, 2014 will see the city host over 1 million people in the biggest street party in East Africa.
With the theme ‘For the love of Kampala’, the Kampala City Festival 2014 provides a platform for us to celebrate a lot about Kampala and many fasts which define Kampala apart from other cities.
“The Kampala City Festival has become a household name and part of our country’s national calendar during independence celebrations. The festival has been evolving over the years from a small city event in 2011 to a much bigger regional activity. We are pleased to unveil the biggest street party ever in the East African region,” said Musisi.
She revealed that this year’s festival has drawn a lot of regional as well as international participation.
The route is longer stretching from Watoto Church to Kololo Independence Grounds with over six stages for different performances.
The Festival will consist of a programme of over 50 events and activities that cross the worlds of business, fashion, art and culture, entertainment, technology, industry, contemporary, pop and other creative displays.
“It is a much anticipated moment for citizens to share and learn while acting as an economic engine for organizations to grow, network and prosper,” Musisi explained.
The festival comes to you with the support and commitment of sponsors largely from the private sector that has powered this activity over the past three years.
