The venue for Africa interhash 2009 is the city of Kampala in Uganda, which although the smallest of the three original capital cities of East Africa, is undoubtedly the greenest and the hilliest, and more importantly, has evolved into what can now be called “the entertainment capital of East Africa”. Here the beer flows aplenty, the bars stay open all night and virtually all forms of entertainment are available whether you choose to gamble, dance, drink, moonlight or want something a little more spicy!
AH09 will take place between 1st and 3rd May 2009 (inclusive) and the main venue will be the cricket stadium at Lugogo, a central location that allows for easy access to all of Kampala’s hotspots. But AH’09 promises to offer far more than the hustle and bustle of Kampala city. Uganda is after all home to the source of the mighty White Nile, and one of the major R*n venues on day 2 will be Jinja, where the river starts its long and arduous journey to the Mediterranean Sea. Here hashers will experience trails that take them through a unique blend of lush green fields, river banks and forests, winding up with truly rewarding amber nectar brewed at the source of the Nile.
The registration fee of US$ 250 gets you three days of non-stop hash entertainment, a souvenir goody bag filled with memorabilia you’ll want to keep for years to come, transport to and from all hash events, and of course, beer till you drop…..and we simply do not brew lite beer in Uganda! For those wishing to experience more of East Africa the hash way, there will be pre and post amble events organised in Kenya, Rwanda and Southern Sudan, details of which will be posted shortly.
