Register now for free at www.nyegenyege.com for the full lowdown.
This year has been unprecedented, and thus required us to bring an unprecedented festival to you, our family, our fans, our loyal party-heads, you who have been locked down and worn down over this year, this one is for you!
First, we have over 300 artists, chosen by 45 African and Afro-centric collectives, who will participate and share with you the best they have to offer. We’ll visit puppeteers in Brazzaville, Rockers in the Sahel desert, Performers from Kinshasa, and so much more…Comedians, DJs, Dancers, Hypnotists, Filmmakers, digital artists, performers of all kinds, we even brought in Uganda’s biggest stars, Cindy, Chameleon and Afrigoband who will all take part in our NBS TV take over throughout the weekend, making the festival available to millions of people throughout the Continent.
NYEGE NYEGE IS FREE! Free to enjoy fully, online and offline, just need to register at www.nyegenyege.com (and also get a hint at some secret sauce parties near you)
Our brand new website has been developed by one amazing person, African Digital Art Network founder Jepchumba, who on top of being a mom, a farmer, a cultural activist and digital wizard, still found time to make this gift to us, thank you!
Now a party ain’t a party if we’re glued to a screen, the most important thing we need for a party is PEOPLE, our FAVORITE PEOPLE. So this year we’ll be guiding you how to have the best party at home, or in smaller gatherings depending on where you live and what corona regulations are in place, SAFETY FIRST!
In Kampala we’ll have a full program for everyone, and ONE SECRET COVID SAFE PARTY, but that one will not be ticketed, you get a chance to attend by registering early and you’ll be informed. We’ll be organizing day time activities throughout the four days. Many countries will have live events tuning into Uganda.
So now just go register and discover the mad program we got for you, then keep your ear out for the next weeks because we will have A LOT to REVEAL. We shall surprise you, and we shall surprise ourselves, at the Nile or somewhere else, this is Nyege Nyege and you should know by now what that means! Good music + Good friends!
For sure this has been very hard to organize, and we all wish we could've just done like we always do, but let’s turn up to the situation and bring the Nyege Nyege to town, to your living room or in a forest somewhere, invoke it and it will come.
