    Located 8km along the Kampala-Jinja highway, It is the venue for Uganda cranes home games. It is large though some seats are rusty whereas other places just have concrete. It offers a good view of the game though the sun rays tend to affect people on the other side. There is parking space for vehicles outside but I would advice one not to drive their car when going to watch football since there is always a lot of traffic congestion after the game that you may take over an hour before exiting the stadium to head for the Northern bypass.

    The stadium is a giant edifice, sitting on sporting ground covering an entire hill. Standing next to it, you can feel it's massive size by how small a human is in comparison. An imposing ball sculpture stands tall in the front yard , testament to the main sport played here, but many sports are played here, according the communications and marketing team I spoke to. It's needs a tour guide to wrap your mind around this sports ground of national size and importance

    It is the biggest stadium in Uganda. It's some times called Namboole Stadium. . It hosts International matches most cases the friendly matches and those that are under African Cup of nations. I live near the stadium and Everytime I see the name, I remember the hero who is the true definition of leadership that all African Leaders should emulate such a strong man from whose name the stadium was named. I am talking about the one and only Nelson Mandiba Mandela, a south African freedom fighter and excellent leader. Back to the Stadium, I have been there several times to watch our Ugandan team, the Uganda cranes Excell and display their unbeatable skills as they play with other nations. During such matches is where you see the true Patriots brand them selves the Ugandan national flag colours that's black, yellow, red and white. I urge all people to make it to Mandela National stadium the next time it's to host any match to see the fun an trying to describe The stadium has four main gates that is the Eastern, western, Norther and the Southern gates. The main gate is normally reserved for the VIPs according to the event that's is taking place at the Stadium. it is spacious enough with an an ample parking space and a hotel. Besides the football matches, the Stadium is also used for New year's overnight prayers, big concerts and conferences, tourists from schools. Every evening there is one of the parking used for various games such as volley ball, small mini football games, bicycle riding, sketting and dancing. All these activities normally attract alot of people on Sunday evenings, who come to kill the Sunday afternoon boredom. I must say, it not named among the best in the world but we are glad we have it and we are proud of what we have as we look forward to better things.

    The Mandela National Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Uganda. It is named after the South African then-President and anti-apartheid icon, Nelson Mandela. The stadium's record attendance of 50,000 was set in 2004, in a football match between the national football teams of Uganda and South Africa.

    Mandela National Stadium is the biggest and best stadium in Uganda, Kampala where big events ranging from sports to religious and political gatherings are held. I love the interior and even the exterior as it has enough space that is always kept clean and fit for events. It is located along Jinja road, opposite Kampala Nothern Bypass, in Bweyogerere.

    The Mandela National Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Uganda. Originally it was called Namboole Stadium, getting its name from the hill on which it was built. It is now officially called Mandela National Stadium, named after the former South African president and icon, the late Nelson Mandela. It was opened in 1997 with a concert by the late Lucky Dube, a reggae artist from South Africa and was later on refurbished in 2010-11 In 2004, in a football match between the national football teams of Uganda and South Africa, the stadium's record attendance of about 45,000 was set and rated the best Stadium in Uganda by the way it was constructed and virtual of its capacity The stadium is home to the Uganda national football team, known as the Uganda Cranes but it is hired for private functions like weddings, Expos e.g the famous harvest money expo that is organised annually. Accessibility is also a problem when there are functions at the stadium due to heavy traffic and a lot can still be done to improve the stadium with modern facilities....

    I used to think love spells was bogus but after Martin left me, I felt open-minded to try it. Maybe I was desperate too. But this is real! You restored the love we had for each other. And now he proposed as you promised he would! I am your friend forever and very grateful for all of this.  contact prof ALI KARIM  whatsapp +256726517738...🕳🖤🖤

    (Translated by Google) Football disaster ... a player was killed by his teammates for scoring an own goal. The player "Churchill Awase" was playing with his team in a friendly match against a club, in Lamu District, northern Uganda, and one of his wrong passes resulted in his team's net against a goal. The newspaper pointed out that Awassi's colleagues assaulted him after the match, and he was killed in a strange incident of its kind. (Original) كارثة كروية.. مقتل لاعب على أيدي زملائه لتسجيله هدفاً في مرماه. اللاعب "تشرشل أواسي" كان يلعب مع فريقه في مباراة ودية أمام أحد الأندية، في مقاطعة لامو شمال أوغندا، وتسببت إحدى تمريراته الخاطئة في تلقي شباك فريقه هدفا عكسيا. وأشارت الصحيفة إلى أن زملاء أواسي اعتدوا عليه بعد المباراة بالضرب، ليلقى مصرعه في حادثة غريبة من نوعها.
