UWA to open a regional zoo in Eastern Uganda (UWEC–Mbale Zoo)
UWA has begun relocating wildlife to Uganda’s first regional satellite zoo in Mbale. So far, lions, a zebra, a waterbuck, an ostrich, and peacocks are thriving in their new home.
The project will bring wildlife conservation and education closer to communities across Eastern Uganda.
Looking forward to the official opening on 12th June 2026.

I thank the Katikkiro, Owek. @cpmayiga, for hosting our latest visitor and international dancehall sensation, @spiceofficial at Bulange this morning. The Prime Minister beguiled us with stories of the 900 year-old @BugandaKingdom_. What a rich and powerful heritage!
Spice was also given a name from the rhinoceros clan. This is the way to welcome our visitors.
To our wider creative and events industry, experienced in bringing international talent into Uganda, please follow suit. Tourism is everyone’s business. Your platforms can extend beyond entertainment; they are gateways into Uganda.
Every artist who sojourns here should experience the essence of this land and leave as an ambassador of #ExploreUganda.
At @TourismBoardUg, we are ready to partner. When global talent experiences Uganda, the world discovers it. Let us showcase the best of Uganda, one event at a time.
