The staff are very friendly. They accept cards as well. The lady at the counter helped me with fitting by tailoring the dress I got . Well worth spending some time there. The rugs made from kitenge fabric are very colorful. There are bed covers made from linen fabric and glasses and tumblers and other knick-knacks. Seems like it will be one of my favorite places to explore. They also organise crafts and farm market fairs. The next one is happening from October 1st, 2022.

I visited Kampala Fair today and it did not disappoint. Beautiful merchandise full of all the amazing colours of Africa. I purchased two very nice items and wouldn’t hesitate to return next time I am in Kampala. The very helpful lady in the shop even informed me they would happily ship items to me in my home country.

This shop is so cozy and the staff super friendly. The nice fabrics and designs make it hard to decide for one item. The fair trade philosophy and the very good quality of the clothes are worth the price.

Stunning fabrics and incredibly friendly and helpful advice. Great place for finding dresses, skirts and tops (all very colourful!) for special occasions. I try to visit every time I'm in Kampala or Entebbe and always end up buying something.

Highly recommend! This is a place where you can get the traditional but high quality materials with reasonable prices. I was also impressed to get their services. You only need to tell the person about what you were looking for and she will help you to get the right ones. Of course, the choice is endless! Once again, Highly recommend!

the choice of patterns, designs, types of clothing for all ages and shapes...
Kampala Fair is more than a shop. A lady in Entebbe point, is more than a saleswoman.
I spent there few hours trying the clothes on and deciding on my size and style and without her support I would not be able to make a choice :)
Clothes are a bit more expensive than the ones bought at the market stalls, but it was also so much easier to find a dress that would suit European taste and body-shape :)
I got 4 of them and the set of trousers with the top!
if you stay for few days in town, you can have the clothes adjusted or made for you in your size or selected pattern.

A cool shop with beautifull dresses, clothing, glasses, souveniers from uganda.
The prices are not very cheap but good quality and special things, also for babies and children

I live in Kampala, so I know how cumbersome it can be to buy a nice fabric and find a right tailor.
Kampala Fair solves the problem at a reasonable price. With its European sizing and universal design, you can get what you like at one visit. I already recommended this place to a friend, and will definitely go back.
