The event organizer, Radio Africa Events, chose Uhuru Gardens as the venue for the festival because it aligns with the event’s purpose.
“Uhuru Gardens, which is the event location, was a well thought out and deliberate choice for us as it aligns with our purpose which is ‘Kenya is our Home, we drive her Growth’. Therefore, we want everyone to come to enjoy the music, acknowledge Kenya’s successes, and appreciate our Kenyan heritage," said Onyanch.
The Gardens, which were declared a National Monument in 1966, is undergoing a massive transformation and is set to become Kenya’s largest memorial park, honouring heroes, showcasing history, and attracting commerce and convention-goers.
