If you’re a football fan in Nairobi, clear your weekend plans right now. The actual Premier League Trophy – the one lifted by champions at the end of every season – is landing in the city, and Guinness is making sure you can experience it in style.
From Saturday, October 25th through Sunday, October 26th, Bar Next Door on Kiambu Road transforms into the ultimate Premier League hub. We’re talking the real trophy on display, live match screenings, expert commentary from the Guinness Matchday Committee, and that electric atmosphere that only comes when passionate fans gather to watch the beautiful game.
This isn’t just about snapping a selfie with silverware (though you absolutely should). It’s about being part of something bigger – celebrating Kenya’s deep love affair with Premier League football alongside people who get why you’re up at odd hours screaming at your screen.
“We remain committed to offering our consumers premium football experiences,” explains Joy Murugi, Guinness Brand Manager. “The presence of the trophy at the Guinness Matchday serves not just to elevate the experience but to recognize the standing of Kenya’s football fans in the support of the Premier League.”
And that standing is impressive. Kenya ranks second across the entire African continent for Premier League fandom, with 86% of local football fans following the league – tied with Malawi and Uganda, and just behind Mauritius at 91%. We take our football seriously here.
So grab your mates, wear your team colors (we won’t judge… much), and head to Bar Next Door this weekend. Perfect venue, perfect beer, perfect excuse to spend your weekend doing exactly what you love.
