Castle Lite Uganda Announces Winners of “The Lite Side Of The Court” Campaign

Castle Lite Uganda has unveiled the winners of its popular campaign, “The Lite Side Of The Court,” following a live draw held on Tuesday at the Nile Breweries Uganda offices in Luzira.

The campaign, which ran from August 12th to September 16th, attracted widespread participation from basketball fans in Kampala and Jinja.

The two lucky winners, Mulwana Olivia and Nambi Wakeba, have won an all-expenses-paid trip to Abu Dhabi to witness the NBA Preseason Game. Mulwana, a former basketball player and now part of the coaching team at Magic Stormers, and her co-winner will embark on this exciting journey from October 3rd to October 7th, 2024.

The grand prize includes round-trip flights and a luxurious three-night stay in the UAE, along with the chance to experience the thrill of the NBA Preseason Game on October 4th, 2024. Additionally, the winners will get to explore the NBA District and visit the NBA store in Abu Dhabi.

Eric Malinga, Brand Manager at Castle Lite, expressed the brand’s commitment to blending moments of light-hearted enjoyment with life’s more serious aspects. “At Castle Lite, we aim to provide our consumers with an escape from their daily routines, offering refreshing moments of relaxation and fun,” Malinga said. “We are excited to offer this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our loyal customers to witness top-tier basketball in Abu Dhabi.”

The promotion, which gained traction during the NBL playoffs—also sponsored by Castle Lite—required participants to purchase either two buckets or two six-packs of Castle Lite to enter. Multiple entries were allowed, boosting participants’ chances of winning.

Castle Lite, a leading premium beer brand in Africa, has been a presence in Uganda since 2008 and is well-known for its association with major pan-African music campaigns. The brand’s partnership with the NBA underscores its global reach and commitment to delivering unique experiences for its consumers.
