The CBA Uganda Vintage and Classic Auto show is back. Now in its 7th edition, the event promises to be bigger and better as organisers are this year adding new twists to spice it up. This was revealed by Dr. John Baptist Niwagaba, the Uganda Vintage and Classic Auto show proprietor, during the official launch of this year’s edition which was held at Commercial Bank of Africa Uganda Limited (CBAU) Head Offices at Twed Towers, Nakasero on Tuesday.
“We are changing from a static show where cars are judged in one place to a mobile show where cars will move to a judging arena thus offering a lively experience to both car owners and spectators,” Niwagaba revealed. “We are also introducing the collectibles category where other vintage items like gramophones and jukeboxes will be showcased.”
To be held under the theme, “Beauty and the Beast”, the event is expected to attract exhibitors from across the region including Kenya, Rwanda and Tanzania.
Speaking at the launch, CBA Bank CEO Anthony Ndegwa, noted that the bank is passionate about the car show because it is a space where the bank interacts with its clients and public in a fun-filled environment. He acknowledged the tremendous work done by Uganda Vintage team, pledging to support event for the foreseeable future.
The CBA Uganda Vintage and Classic Auto show 2018 edition will be held on Saturday, July 28 at the Kampala Sheraton Gardens.
