Bell Lager, the official beer of Enjoyments will for the first time bring you Obafest – a beer festival to celebrate East African cuisine, music, and culture this October.
ObaFest is being held under the joint East African OktobaFest experience – a beer festival spanning the East African countries of Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and South Sudan. In keeping with its tradition, ObaFest promises an unforgettable celebration of the region’s rich cultural tapestry.
As East Africa’s biggest festival gears up for its 2023 edition, it remains committed to its core pillars: to position itself as a beacon of African optimism by highlighting East African culture through food, music, beer, and an unprecedented showcase of each participating country’s unique cultural identity.
With its roots firmly grounded in celebrating the essence of East Africa, the Bell ObaFest has a singular vision: to unite & inspire optimistic East Africans to raise a glass to our vibrant culture through beer, community & creativity.
The festival will work with partners: FlexiPay with special offers for payments; SafeBoda – who will ensure revelers travel safely to and from the festival at affordable costs; Light For The World – a disability-inclusive partner and Coca-Cola.
