Sheila Gashumba, Dj Dash to Rock Tequila Island Fiesta in Tanzania 

Celebrated Socialite  Sheila Gashumba, and disc spinner- Dj Dash, are on their way to Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania, for the Tequila Island Fiesta.

The duo joins East Africa’s hottest names for Don Julio’s exclusive Tequila Island luxury summer experience in Dar es Salaam, slated for July 26.

The coastal breeze of Dar es Salaam will carry more than just the scent of the sea. It will carry the pulse of East Africa’s elite lifestyle, as the continent’s cultural tastemakers descend on Tequila Island Summer Camp, an immersive experience happening at Mbudya Island, curated and powered by Don Julio, the world’s leading luxury tequila.

Sheila Gashumba, who has now sunk her feet into the DJ world under the alias Lil Stunner, will be performing a special set giving guests a taste of her skills.

Tequila Island is a celebration of culture, craftsmanship, and class. It’s Don Julio’s love letter to East Africa, delivered through a line-up of curated experiences designed to ignite every sense. 

On Saturday morning, Sheila and Dash will set off for Mbudya Island, where the main Tequila Island event will take place. The event theme? Glam. The dress code? Orange, Pink & Yellow. 

From island-style tastings to immersive mixology bars and beachfront beats, this is where the vibes will turn legendary.

After the Tequila Island event, the group will return to Dar es Salaam for an official after-party at 1245. Then on Sunday, the weekend wraps up with a brunch at Dar Fish.

“This isn’t just a party; it’s a platform,” says Judie Nandekya, Brand Manager for Don Julio. “At Don Julio, we don’t just throw events, we engineer culture. Tequila Island is how we honour East Africa’s creative pulse, and I am happy that our very own Sheila and Dash will be ably representing us. It’s about authenticity, prestige, and making every moment worthy of the finest tequila.”

This one-of-a-kind experience is part of Don Julio’s broader mission to redefine what premium lifestyle means in Africa, as well as position tequila not just as a drink, but as a symbol of bold taste, refined identity, and unforgettable moments.

From exclusive guest lists, to tequila education sessions, runway-ready fashion themes to pulse-pounding DJ sets, Tequila Island is legacy in motion, an ode to those who live life with flavor and finesse.
