Tanqueray Showtime Returns with Focus on Culinary Arts and Fashion
Tanqueray will host the second edition of Tanqueray Showtime on 25 April 2026 at Zereniti House. The event builds on its debut in December 2025 and continues to explore the link between cocktail culture, gastronomy, and fashion in Kenya’s social scene.
Themed “Botanical and Blush,” the experience will blend rich greens, soft blush tones, champagne, and ivory. Organisers will host the event in an intimate setting, limiting attendance to 50 guests to maintain exclusivity.
A Curated Blend of Food, Fashion and Craft
Nancy Nansikombi, Tanqueray Brand Manager for East Africa, said the platform targets consumers seeking immersive lifestyle experiences.
“Showtime gives consumers a new way to connect with Tanqueray through creativity, culture, and craft,” she said. “We are bringing together fashion, gastronomy, cocktail mastery, and sustainability in one experience.”
At the centre of the event is a collaboration with The Nomad Table, led by Kim Kiarie. She will guide guests through a four-course dining experience paired with different Tanqueray variants.
The menu draws from familiar Kenyan ingredients such as beef, chicken, tilapia, and lemons. It reinterprets these elements using refined techniques and subtle floral infusions.
“This experience shows that simple can be elegant,” said Kiarie. “Traditional flavours can evolve through fusion and infusion.”
Immersive Experiences Take Centre Stage
Guests will also attend a cocktail masterclass led by the Tanqueray Brand Ambassador. The session will showcase the craftsmanship behind the brand’s signature drinks.
In addition, organizers will introduce the “Creators Corridor,” a live fashion showcase. Models will present designs in a format that blends performance with visual storytelling.
Tanqueray continues to position Showtime as a lifestyle platform. The brand aims to connect with consumers through curated, high-end experiences that merge culture, creativity, and social engagement.
