Kampala evenings do not start until later than you think. Dinner at eight is early, and the best live music rarely begins before ten. That surprises many visitors, but it makes the city feel exciting.
My formula is simple: a sundowner with a view, a proper meal (street food counts), then live music or dancing. I always arrange my transport in advance and stay with my group.
The best nights in Kampala are the ones you did not plan too tightly.
I keep an updated list of concerts, festivals and cultural nights on the Events page. If something catches your eye, tell me and we will go together.
