Arsenal fans across the country were overjoyed in May as they celebrated the club’s first English Premier League title in 22 years.
In Uganda, Arsenal fans took to the streets to celebrate and kept their bragging rights over rival fans into the new season.
They organised street parties, motorcades, and gatherings in cities like Kampala, Hoima, Mbale, Jinja, Kamuli, Mpigi, and Kyotera.
Supporters rode in large motorcycle and car motorcades, waved Ugandan and Arsenal flags, shared Arsenal-themed cakes, paraded replica trophies, and held parties at bars.
Arsenal fans are expected to keep the excitement up and lead in the selfie moments when the official Premier League trophy visits Uganda again.
Ugandans are set to come face-to-face with one of football’s most coveted symbols, transforming the excitement of the Premier League from something experienced on screens every week into a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Across three days, Guinness will bring together the energy of matchday, the power of music, and the richness of Ugandan culture in a celebration designed to make the Trophy’s presence an unforgettable moment for fans as the trophy visits different places.
The Trophy Tour will arrive in Uganda following a visit to Tanzania and before heading to Kenya. The Ugandan leg will feature a series of fan experiences, entertainment, and activations across Kampala and Entebbe.
