Elephant Charge

​

The Elephant Charge is an annual event which challenges teams of cars and motorbikes to complete a gruelling course through the Zambian bush. The Charge is held to raise money for conservation in Zambia, focussed on conservation through education, and in the ten years since it began, the event has raised over $1,176,000 which has been distributed to conservation organisations working across the country. The event is held at a different location each year over the course of a weekend in September or October.

Elephant Epic MTB Race  

​

The Elephant Epic is an annual mountain bike race from Lusaka to the Lower Zambezi, which aims to raise funds for wildlife conservation. The race follows a rugged and beautiful route from Lusaka to the Lower Zambezi down the escarpment, covering a distance of approximately 75 km. Long enough to be a challenge, yet short enough to attract riders of wide-ranging abilities, the route showcases the remote and beautiful Zambian scenery.

Mulungushi MTB Challenge​

​

The Mulungushi Mountain Bike Challenge is a family friendly event held each year on the Farmers’ Day long weekend (usually the first weekend of August) at Mulungushi Dam, 50km East of Kabwe. The event features mountain bike races and trail runs for all ages and abilities, ranging from the 1km toddlers ride all the way up to the 80km mountain bike marathon.

 

All events start and finish on the shore of the dam, taking participants out along scenic canyons, and through lush miombo forests. Accommodation consists of affordable self catering chalets and a campground, and meals are provided to all event entrants for the duration of the weekend. 

 

This is a fun, affordable, fitness focused weekend away for your whole family.

Considered one of the best stretches of commercially run river in the world, Batoka Gorge provides one of the most intense sensory thrills imaginable. Its white-water rapids and striking scenery deep within the sheer black cliffs afford the adrenaline junkie a wild roller-coaster ride along a route carved over millennia by the Great Zambezi.

Zambian Art & Design Show

​

The Zambian Art and Design Show popularly known as ZADS, is now in its 12th year and has been held every November for each of those years. The main objective of the show is to provide a platform for artists, artisans and designers to showcase their products to would-be customers and businesses on an annual basis.

​

Our key aim for the next decade is to turn the show into a Pan African show, which will not only attract more visitors from around and outside Zambia but also encourage more trade in the area of art and design between Zambia and the rest of the world. We also are in planning to include a trade day within the Show. ZADS has today become an eagerly awaited annual event in the Zambian calendar.

​

We encourage every Zambian to come and support locally produced handmade crafts and products from our exceptional vendors.

​

Thank you very much for your continued support and look forward to seeing you all at ZADS.
