Following the highly successful outing of the Desperados Ignite party at Shalom Gardens in Asaba, Desperados beer is set to delight party lovers in Port Harcourt.

The tequila-flavoured beer brand has announced its next Ignite Party. Slated for Sunday, June 26, 2022, the Festival will be held at Higi Haga, Port Harcourt.

Mirroring elements of its last trek, the youth-centric party rave will glean from the brand’s ethos of ‘experimental fun’ to deliver popular music and fun experiences in the grand space of the Higi Haga.

Asides from DJ Big N and DJ Tohbad who are billed to mount the stage and supply nonstop music for the evening, Radio Nana and Hypeman Faceless will bring energy to the grounds as hosts and there will be plenty to munch on as well as chilled Desperados to heighten the excitement. Another feature the Port Harcourt version will replicate includes fun games and activities with incentives for guests to win multiple gift prizes.

As expected for an event of this magnitude; it will accommodate guests in their hundreds, thus making it the perfect setting for a hangout with friends, celebrities and influencers, as well as providing a space for guests to network with one another.

The Brand Manager, Desperados, NB Plc, Aboyowa Ikpobe, noted the importance of bringing the music festival to Port Harcourt. She said:

“Port Harcourt has a vibrant youth culture, one that is reflected in the Desperados beer brand. We understand our place in all of this and that is why we identify with them through the Ignite Party.

“The Ignite Parties is our way of saying ‘we note the resilience of young people regardless of social status.’ With Desperados, there are no bounds or limitations as to what can be done or achieved, and we are proud to replicate that authenticity through the Desperados Ignite parties as it moves across the country,” Ikpobe concluded.
