The Emin Pasha Hotel and Spa brought the festive spirit alive on Wednesday, December 11, by hosting a Cake Mixing event as part of their seasonal activities.
This tradition draws inspiration from Ugandan harvesting customs, which often bring communities together to celebrate during the festive season. Modern hotels now adopt similar practices, hosting events that foster unity and joy reminiscent of harvest festivities.
