Revellers welcomed the Easter holiday in style with a nostalgic feeling that took them back to the oldies at the Reminisce event held at Kati Kati, Lugogo in Kampala.
Being the eighth in the series, the Reminisce is a brainchild of Robert Victor Nsibirwa and Prisca Mutesi, whose dreams of captivating Ugandans with the old-school feel got birthed in 2021.
Nsibirwa said that the Reminisce is an experiential event, which brings together lovers of old-school culture to enjoy the music all the way from the 1960s to early the 90s as they catch up with friends while enjoying a variety of eats and drinks.
Launched at Cayenne Bar in 2021, the Reminisce has since grown into an event that runs three times a year, spiced up by attendance from revellers who showcase their throwback fashion, while matching up to the theme.
“Our next edition will be in August while another will run in December. We always keep the theme simple; everything is old school. We call it the grown-up’s playground,” Nsibirwa added.
The latest edition was enjoyed with a blend of music and entertainment featuring Rasta Rob MC, DJ Ssesse, DJ Moze, Selects Dee and DJ Gero.
According to Mutesi, Reminisce is getting bigger while enjoying partnerships and support from Next Media, 7Up and Stanbic Bank’s FlexiPay.
To spice up the event, revellers were treated to a happy hour where discounts were awarded to those who paid using FlexiPay.
Beers saw a discount of 3,000, Spirits and Whiskeys had a cut of 15,000 while snacks got a reduction of 5,000. There were also two lucky winners of headphones after instantly activating and making various transactions FlexiPay.
In a related development, FlexiPay treated revellers to a lot of discounts during the premier of the Godzilla X Kong movie premier, at Acacia Mall recently.
Curtain-raised with a cocktail treat marked with a red carpet session at 4:00pm, fans enjoyed the event with 3D glasses hired at a fee of UGX8000 while snacking away at free popcorn.
The premier is part of the 190-day promotion between Stanbic Bank and Century Cinemax that was launched on December 01, 2023. For the past four months, Movie lovers paying for tickets using FlexiPay or Visa cards have since received 20% discounts on their payments.
Dubbed ‘FlexiPay Cinema Fridays,’ the promotion happens every Friday at all Century Cinemax locations, including Acacia Mall in Kololo, Metroplex in Naalya and Arena Mall in Nsambya.
