Nyege Nyege

Nyege Nyege, which is Africa’s ultimate music and arts festival, returns for its 8th edition in an exciting new location, and, upon the invitation of the Mayor of Jinja and the Jinja City Council, the event will take place at three conjoined sites: The Jinja Golf Course, Source of the Nile and the Jinja Showground.
