Since its inception in 2022, the Lira Corporate Gala has made significant strides in enhancing the organizational climate and improving workers’ quality of life and performance.

The event will kick off at the Lira Town College playground in the morning with public aerobics to promote self-care, followed by a series of outdoor games including football and volleyball throughout the day as participants also enjoy indoor games such as chess, Mweso, Ludo, and tug-of-war, fostering friendship among attendees.
