"Showtime is a strategic investment in Uganda's premium lifestyle and creative economy," said Dianah Tinkamanyire, Head of IT at Uganda Breweries, speaking on behalf of the Managing Director at the exclusive menu tasting event. "We're proud to launch a platform that not only celebrates talent and taste but also positions Uganda on the global luxury map."

Echoing her sentiments, Nancy Nansikombi, Brand Manager for Tanqueray East Africa, highlighted the immersive nature of the experience:

"With Showtime, we're reimagining what daytime experiences in Kampala can be. Each edition will connect guests personally with the full Tanqueray range - from the crisp elegance of London Dry, to the zesty notes of Sevilla, and the refined luxury of Tanqueray No. Ten," said Nansikombi. "This is more than brunch. It's a celebration of Ugandan creativity, culinary mastery, and luxury lifestyle - curated to leave guests eagerly anticipating the next edition."

In addition to the gourmet experience and signature Tanqueray cocktails, Showtime will feature fashion showcases and sustainable design installations. Partners include Bold in Africa and Good Glass UG, who will unveil their latest in-house collections on October 25.

With its unique blend of flavour, fashion, culture, and sophistication, Showtime promises to become Kampala's ultimate brunch destination -- setting a new standard for daytime luxury gatherings in the region.
