The event

Kigali Fashion Week returned in 2026 after a six-year pause, with a week of exhibitions, talks, films and runways across several venues in the city, ending with the main runway. Designers, models, buyers and guests need a base that works from early fittings to late shows.

A villa gives a team space to dress, prepare and receive. On request, the concierge arranges hair, make-up and a barber at the villa, a photographer for the looks and a private driver between venues, each quoted before you confirm.

Dates

It last ran from 25 to 30 May 2026. 2027 dates: not announced as of October 2026.

Arranged by your concierge
