By Our Reporter
The second day of the Nyege Nyege festival cranked up the volume and the vibes, with Friday delivering a bigger crowd, wilder acts, and a whole lot more magic as the vast Jinja Golf Course transformed into a playground of music and culture.
Right at the entrance, the festival goers were met with a ferris wheel whose colourful lights and grand appearance charmed many for a ride, kicking off their experience with a dose of playful fun. Across the sprawling venue, seven stages came alive with an intoxicating mix of music, traditional dance, and live performances, immersing attendees in Nyege Nyege’s spellbinding world.
The Uganda Waragi main stage stood as the heart of the festival, where host Sheila Salta maintained a pulsating energy, seamlessly introducing a diverse lineup of acts. Each of the artists through the night brought their unique style, pushing the boundaries of music and performance. The energy was palpable as the crowd danced and swayed to the rhythm of the night.
For those in the mood for something out of this world, the Dark Star stage provided a mesmerizing escape. International acts like France’s DJ Crusatsex, Indonesia’s Asep Nayak, and Tanzania’s DJ Travella transported audiences to cosmic realms with their unique sets. Meanwhile, the Talent Africa Group (TAG) Dome, adorned with vibrant décor, offered a dynamic mix of local and international talent, with standout performances from Uganda’s DJ Rocky, Denmark’s Bjorn Vido, and Tanzania’s Big Chipi, ensuring the energy never faltered.
For a more laid-back vibe, the Hang Out stage offered hip hop, R&B, and a cozy spot to kick back with friends—or crush some video games if you needed a breather from all the dancing.
Elsewhere, the UBL Red Card tent provided a reflective and interactive space where attendees could relax with drinks while engaging in karaoke sessions and trivia games promoting responsible drinking, complete with prizes for the most knowledgeable participants.
As the festival gears up for Day Three, revellers eagerly anticipate another round of extraordinary performances and unforgettable memories.
