Made in Kenya Festival scheduled to run in April

Brand Kenya Board in partnership with Trace Events recently launched the Made in Kenya Festival 2019. The inaugural event will be held on April 5-7 in Nairobi.

The event purposes to reinforce the “Buy Kenya, Build Kenya Agenda”, which is aimed at inculcating in the mind of all Kenyan citizens, patriotism and preference for Kenyan goods and services as a means of supporting the domestic economy.

Speaking at the launch, Brand Kenya acting CEO Floice Mukabana said, “We believe that music; art, food and sport go a long way in shaping our brand values and provide a mirror to the soul of the nation.”

Secular and gospel Kenyan artistes based in Kenya and in the diaspora singing in vernacular can be nominated.
