Uganda Waragi delivered the highly billed ‘Wild Style Karaoke’ night at the bar, leaving revellers with nostalgic recollections.
The evening was a fully energized one that spewed out the best musical performances as revellers sipped away at their signature Uganda Waragi cocktails.
The performances on the night ranged from hip-hop to reggae, RnB, slows, among others. The crowd’s favourite act, Benjie, who performed Usher’s Good Kisser, received the loudest applause from the audience. His performance kept the audience on its feet as the musical aura swept through the hall.
Benjie mimicked Usher’s dance moves, giving the audience a glimpse of what a live ‘Usher’ performance would feel like. As he bowed out, the audience was more than convinced that he had done enough to earn the bragging rights of the night.
Speaking prior to the event, Rhona Namanya, the Uganda Waragi Brand Manager said; “As part of our 70 year anniversary celebrations, we are embracing Ugandan activities that celebrate our great heritage. What better way to do that than through music which is a strong touch point for many Ugandans.”
In order to enable Ugandans enjoy their Uganda Waragi, the brand has not only innovated new flavors of Coconut and Coffee; but has also created signature cocktails to elevate the drinking experience.
“Our ambition is to deliver an experience that our consumers will live to remember. Under our Diageo Master Bar Academy Program, several bartenders and bar owners have been trained to deliver cocktail recipes that will satisfy our consumers,” Ms. Namanya added.
The Wild Style Karaoke Night is the first of a number of activities that Uganda Waragi, which has been here for the last 50 years, will be running in the spirit of embracing all things Ugandan.
As a Ugandan heritage brand, Uganda Waragi will be sponsoring Blankets and Wine on September 25, 2016; the Afrigo Concert happening on September 1, 2016 and Kampala Cocktail Week that will be running from December 1 to December 10, 2016. “We are proud to promote all things Ugandan,” remarked Rhona Namanya.
Uganda Waragi continues to urge its consumers to partake in responsible drinking practices.
