Manyatta Homecoming brought the spirit of Kisumu to life at Attela Beach Resort, bringing together music lovers, artists and guests for an experience celebrating the sounds, flavours and connections that make the lakeside city distinctive.
Anchored in Manyatta Cider’s Taste Like Home platform, the gathering celebrated the familiar moments that bring people together, from the music that evokes memories to the people and places that create a sense of belonging. Through live performances, DJ sets and shared social experiences, Homecoming placed Kisumu’s cultural identity at the heart of the celebration.
The event featured performances by Watendawili, alongside DJ Dimore, DJ Mawinch and DJ Dream, with MC Claudia Naisabwa guiding the experience. Together, the artists and DJs brought a mix of sounds and energy to an occasion that celebrated Kenyan music and the connections it creates.
At the heart of the experience was the question, “What’s Your Taste of Home?” The idea invited guests to reflect on the sounds, flavours, places and people that make Kisumu feel like home, recognising that belonging is often found in the everyday moments and shared experiences that connect communities.
“Home is more than a place; it is the people we share moments with, the sounds we recognise and the experiences that stay with us. Through Manyatta Homecoming, we wanted to celebrate what makes Kisumu unique while creating a space for people to connect over music, culture and shared experiences,” said Catherine Wahu, Brand Manager, Manyatta Cider.

The homecoming also brought Manyatta Cider’s crisp, refreshing taste into the social experience, complementing an afternoon and evening of music, conversation and connection. Through its Taste Like Home platform, the brand continues to create opportunities for people to celebrate familiar connections and the moments that make them feel at home.
Beyond the performances, the experience offered an opportunity to spotlight Kisumu’s cultural character through the voices of its people and the music that shapes its social identity. From artist conversations to guest reflections, the Homecoming concept extended beyond the stage, celebrating the different ways people experience and express a sense of home.
Manyatta Homecoming reflects the brand’s commitment to creating culturally relevant experiences that bring people together and celebrate the richness of Kenyan culture. By taking the experience to Kisumu, the brand placed local identity at the centre of the conversation, connecting its Taste Like Home platform with the city’s music, people and spirit.
