Born on the banks of the Nile in 2015, Nyege Nyege grew from an underground gathering into a defining platform for contemporary music and art, Ugandan at heart, Pan African in spirit.
Set against the raw landscape of Kalagala Falls, the adventure unfolds over four days of continuous sound, radical expression, and total immersion. More than a music festival, we’re a living ecosystem where fashion, film, performance and music converge into one expansive collective celebration of cultures.
For its 11th edition, Nyege Nyege mutates into a Wakaliwood-inspired film set, the script will unfold in the months to come.
