The Office of the Spokesperson of the Bugisu Cultural Institution hereby informs the general public, business community, organizations, and exhibitors that the allocation of exhibition pitches and business spaces at the Mutoto Cultural Grounds for the upcoming Imbalu 2026 Launch will officially commence in July 2026.

Individuals, companies, and groups intending to showcase, market, or sell their products and services during this prestigious cultural event are encouraged to secure space early. We note that several groups and companies have already booked and paid for their stalls, leaving only a limited number of spaces available.
The public is strongly cautioned against making payments to unauthorized individuals claiming to allocate exhibition space on behalf of the Bugisu Cultural Institution. Anyone who may have made payments to unauthorized persons is advised to immediately contact the Office of the Spokesperson on 0782231577. The institution will work closely with security agencies to investigate and address any cases of fraud.
Official payment procedures and the authorized banking channels for stall allocation will be communicated in due course. Members of the public are urged to wait for this official communication before making any payments.
The Imbalu Launch remains a premier cultural event that celebrates the rich heritage of the Bamasaaba while creating valuable opportunities for trade, tourism, and community engagement. We encourage all interested exhibitors to take advantage of this platform and participate in making Imbalu 2026 a resounding success.
