When we, together with our partners Kumbali Country Lodge & New Dawn Boxing Promotions first dreamt up Clash at the Castle, we knew we were stepping into new territory. Boxing has always been a sport of grit and passion, while The Soirée has been about lifestyle, fashion, and curated experiences. Could the two worlds blend? Could die-hard boxing fans and Soirée patrons, Kumbali’s guests and first-time guests, all come together seamlessly under one roof?
The answer was a resounding yes, and that’s because of all of you who believed.
To our main sponsors and exclusive financial partner, FDH Bank Plc & Ekhaya Group, thank you for powering a fully cashless event and showing what seamless looks like, we’re grateful for your faith and strength in standing with us. To Super Maheu and Shilpa Construction Limited, your contributions helped make this vision possible.
To Eminent Prints, you were once again our rock. From photo props, menus, and merch branding to the ring branding itself, always reliable, always on time. To PayChangu and the Ulinzinga platform, thank you for ticketing that just worked and support we could lean on. To the MABA president and MPBCB, thank you for guiding us and helping merge boxing with curated entertainment in a way Malawi has never seen before.
To the fighters, Ibrahim Lingson, Daniel Mukhaya, Sakina Ibrahim, Loveness Kokha, Benard Kundayi, Billiat Venias, Ruth Chisale, Monalisa Sibanda, Grey Chimkwapulo, and Yamikani Mtambo, you gave the night its heartbeat. To House of Daniella, thank you for the fashion inspiration and for dressing and styling our ring girls with elegance.
To our production partners, Kweza Afrika, Jay Decor and Lota Living, you helped transformed Kumbali Castle into a stage worthy of history. To our performing acts, DJ Enzo, Sienta Papi (SMPH), Way2Savage, Teddy Makadi, and Temwa, you kept the energy flowing and gave the night its rhythm.
And finally, to the teams at Kumbali, The Sunday Soirée, and New Dawn Boxing Promotions, you held it all together.
Most importantly, to the fans, patrons, and every single person who came through: thank you. You didn’t just attend an event. You became part of a new story for Malawi. A story where sport meets lifestyle, where elegance meets adrenaline, where boxing becomes more than a fight, it becomes an experience.
From the bottom of our hearts: thank you for believing!
Here’s to you all and to more nights like this. 🥂
