On Saturday, Mabira Forest played host to one of a kind party dubbed ‘Frosty Forest Party’. Organized by the highly ranked music deejays collective, Almost Famous DJz, and sponsored by Castle Lite, the all night camping experience which was returning for season 3 was held at the Najjembe Camp Site.
Campers started setting up camp as early as 11am on Saturday and this would go on well into the night while different deejays took turns to play a variety of old and new, local and international music throughout the night and for the better part of Sunday. As revelers downed liqour bottles and enjoyed Nyama Choma, the forest became a disco for one night out of town.
The one night out of town forest party is a theme that the Almost Famous DJs have mastered with a touch of giving their revelers something new with every edition.
The collective has recently changed the way many Ugandans party by introducing a touch of Deejay names that are not famous (hence the label) but standout when it comes to playing the music that gets partygoers dancing the nights away. This has given them reason to follow the Almost Famous DJz across the country as they play music in different regions.
The deejays that played during the forest party included; DJ Emma, DJ Kiko, Konk Mukiga, DJ Jermaine, DJ Mackus, DJ Andrey, DJ Virus and DJ Krystal.
Asked why the Almost Famous DJz were gaining a huge following, label Cofounder, Jagen, said; “We have learnt to give partygoers what they want and this is no longer deejay names but good music and a great ambiance. Going forward, we shall be having the Frost Forest Party twice a year and we invite people to come and check out a whole new camping experience. We would also like to thank all of those that turned up for the recent party.”
