Highly anticipated to be a tourist attraction event, Uganda Tourism Board , Ministry of Tourism has already thrown their weight behind the event, besides KCCA among others.

Dancer Eddie Wizzy who attended the press launch is among the entertainers set to thrill the revellers at the festival.

The Rolex, simply explained, is prepared by rolling together chapati(s) and omelette spiced with vegetables (sliced tomatoes, onions and cabbage). The snack which takes utmost 5 minutes to prepare goes for about Shs. 2,000 and can be easily accessed at roadside stalls across Kampala and other urban towns in the country.

The annual rolex festival which was launched in 2016 by the Ministry of Tourism to promote Rolex and Uganda’s culinary culture has since become a popular calendar event
