Before urbanization and the rise of technology, event communication in Africa differed greatly from what we know and embrace today. In the olden days, information about gatherings and celebrations was often spread through word of mouth, community announcements, or by beating drums that resonated across villages. These traditional methods were deeply rooted in the community’s culture but had limitations, lacked precision, had limited reach, and were dependent on the proximity of the people.
Myjiji exists because the event industry in Africa has outgrown traditional methods. With the rise of urbanization, mobile technology, and changing audience expectations, there is a clear need for a solution that bridges the gap between organizers and attendees while keeping pace with modern demands.
Events are at the heart of our communities, from concerts and cultural festivals to corporate conferences. Yet, despite their importance, event management has often been affected by inefficiencies, poor communication, and logistical issues. That’s where ‘’Myjiji’’ steps in.
‘’Myjiji’’ is directly translated to ‘’My City/Town”, enabling anyone to explore and discover various activities and events around them.
Myjiji is more than just an event app, it’s a digital revolution. Designed to streamline the event process, from advertising and ticketing to attendee engagement and analytics, it is the ultimate tool for organizers and attendees alike.
Here’s why Myjiji is the game-changer the event industry has been waiting for:
1. Simplifying Event Management

Real-time notifications keep you, the attendee, informed of any updates, ensuring a seamless experience. Organizers can communicate directly with you, providing instant updates and answering questions.

This innovation is a win-win for both the planet/ environment and the event industry.
5. Enhancing Accessibility and Convenience
From integrating Google Maps for easy venue navigation to accepting multiple payment methods for ticket purchases, Myjiji prioritizes user convenience. The app’s intuitive design ensures that even first-time users can navigate it effortlessly and without encountering any issues
For example, during university orientations, Myjiji makes it easy for students to access their schedules, find their way around campus, and stay updated on activities, all with a few taps on their phones, and we all know how GEN Z are all on their phones, this helps the university meet them easily.
6. Building a Community Around Events
At its core, Myjiji is about connection. The app fosters a sense of community by making events more accessible, interactive, and engaging. Whether it’s through live polls, Q&A sessions, or gamified challenges, Myjiji ensures that every attendee feels like a part of the experience.
