The inaugural edition of the Janzi Awards happened in a two-day event from Saturday 11th to Sunday 12th December, 2021.

Several Ugandan personalities walked home with accolades at the awards which seek to honor and celebrate the artistic and creative excellence of Ugandans in the Creative and Arts Industry.
