Guinness, the Official Beer of the Premier League, hosted a Guinness Matchday experience at Al Capone along Thika Road on Sunday, 25 January, drawing football fans for a live screening of key Premier League fixtures.
Football fans thronged Al Capone, Thika Road, for blockbuster Premier League action featuring live screening of the Sunday game on big screens and crisp audio alongside expert punditry and perfectly chilled Guinness.
The event coincided with a weekend of high-profile matches, including Crystal Palace versus Chelsea, where the Blues secured a 3–1 away victory in the London derby. Attention later shifted to the much-anticipated clash between league leaders Arsenal and Manchester United, which ended in a 3–2 win for United.
Fans followed the matches on large HD screens with enhanced audio, creating a stadium-style viewing atmosphere. The experience was complemented by live punditry and commentary from Manchester City’s Lotan Salapei, who engaged the crowd with analysis and matchday insights throughout the games.
Speaking at the event, Guinness Brand Manager Joy Murugi said the strong turnout reflected the growing demand for shared football viewing experiences among local fans.
“The energy at this Guinness Matchday has been phenomenal. The passion shown by fans during the Arsenal versus Manchester United match highlights why Guinness Matchday exists — to bring people together around their shared love for football,” Murugi said, adding that more matchday experiences are planned.
Beyond the live screenings, attendees enjoyed Guinness servings and participated in the Guinness Cleansheet Challenge, a fan engagement activity testing Premier League knowledge.
Guinness Matchday is part of the brand’s ongoing efforts to enhance how Kenyan football fans experience the Premier League, with additional events expected later in the season.
GUINNESS® Foreign Extra Stout remains the most full-flavored of all, singular and striking, uniquely satisfying, brewed with extra hops and roasted barley for a natural bite. The fans engaged in the bitter and sweet moment with the drinks as they enjoyed banter and celebrations closing the weekend.
