Africa One Tours and Travel Limited, through its lifestyle and entertainment brand Safari Beats, has today officially announced the upcoming performance of Jamaican dancehall superstar Spice in Uganda, scheduled for December 6, 2025.
The announcement was made during a colourful media launch at Serena Hotel in Kampala, where organizers unveiled the broader vision of Safari Beats, ticketing details, promotional materials, and exclusive first-look campaign assets for what promises to be one of the most iconic music experiences of the year.
The December concert will showcase a powerful blend of international and Ugandan talent, headlined by Spice, widely celebrated as the Queen of Dancehall, who will be performing live alongside Uganda’s most celebrated female artists Cindy, Sheebah, and Winnie Nwagi. Together, these queens of the stage will deliver an unforgettable performance that highlights not only their individual artistry but also the strength and vibrancy of music as a cultural force in Uganda.
Safari Beats represents a new kind of entertainment experience, one that fuses Uganda’s vibrant music culture with its tourism potential. It is not just about live music, but about telling Uganda’s story through a lens that embraces heritage, creativity, and exploration. In line with this vision, Spice’s visit will also include tours of Murchison National Park, the Kasubi Royal tombs, Bulange Mengo, Namugongo and other cultural and heritage sites, amplifying Uganda’s image as the Pearl of Africa. By merging music and tourism in this way, Safari Beats aims to showcase Uganda to the world as both a stage for global talent and a destination of unmatched beauty.

Widely recognized as Uganda’s most celebrated beer, Nile Special’s involvement highlights the synergy between cultural pride and excellence, aligning perfectly with the artists’ boldness and authenticity. Nile Special Brand Manager Eric Malinga said, “This isn’t just a concert; it’s a celebration of exceptional talent and a reflection of the vibrant connection between music, culture, and the spirit of greatness. Just as Spice has dominated the global dancehall scene with her unmatched energy and authentic style, Nile Special has long been a symbol of excellence and pride in Uganda, brewed with 100% locally sourced ingredients.”
“The synergy between these artists and Nile Special is undeniable. Each of these women;Spice, Cindy, Sheebah, and Winnie Nwagi embody the guts and grit it takes to reach the top. They are not just performers; they are champions of their craft, fearless in their expression and celebrated for their powerful impact. This partnership is more than a sponsorship; it’s a salute to their success and a toast to the rich, dynamic music scene that connects us all. Get ready to raise a glass of Nile Special and celebrate a night of unmatched talent, powerful beats, and the gold standard of music. This December, we are all Made of Uganda, and we are ready to welcome the dancehall queen with open arms,” Malinga added.
