What time do the festivities usually end in Uganda on New Year’s Eve?

In Uganda, New Year’s Eve festivities are known for their lively and extended celebrations, often continuing well into the early hours of New Year’s Day. Fireworks displays, typically held around midnight, mark the peak of celebrations, but parties in popular hotels, clubs, and restaurants often carry on until 3 or 4 a.m. 

In Kampala, places like Guvnor, Sky Lounge, and Club Illusion keep the energy high with DJs and live performances that stretch into the morning. Outdoor events and concerts can also last late, especially at venues like Lugogo Cricket Oval and Acacia Mall. In residential areas, smaller gatherings and family celebrations may wrap up shortly after midnight. However, larger celebrations and organized events in Uganda tend to continue well past midnight, making it a lively, all-night celebration for many. Whether enjoying a vibrant nightclub or a grand outdoor event, Ugandans and visitors alike embrace the opportunity to start the New Year with a night full of music, dancing, and joy.
