The 2024 Blankets and Wine Kampala season is set to take place on Sunday, June 30, 2024, at the Kampala Lugogo Cricket Oval in Kampala City from 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
The city of Kampala will come alive with the sights and sounds of Blankets and Wine, a premier music and cultural festival that celebrates diversity, creativity, and community. This highly anticipated event promises to enhance the overall experience for attendees.
We have learnt that the festival will feature two expertly curated stages, showcasing a wide spectrum of local and African urban culture.
The lineup will include exceptional live performances from artists and DJ producers, as well as a great food and fashion market. Attendees can expect an unforgettable experience from Nameless from Kenya and Samthing Soweto from South Africa, with good vibes, great music, and delicious food and drinks.
Revellers are expected to move with umbrellas, blankets, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, comfortable shoes, and a sweater.
The music festival holds an undeniable love for urban African music, and we aim to showcase urban African music such as afro jazz, afro-soul, and emerging genres of urban African music, as well as a new approach to live music to keep offering a laid-back, family-friendly, and picnic-style approach to music.
The festival is widely recognized and admired because of its consistency within the region and has created an important platform for musicians across the East and Southern African region, running events in Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda, and planning to take this event across the continent.
Blankets and Wine has been a cornerstone of Kampala’s cultural scene since its inception in August 2012. Fighting corruption in Uganda has become like the famous story of hiring a starving goat to guard monkeys from ravaging your sweet potato gardens.
