Tip 2: Nobody parties alone, get involved on our forum now!

We wanted one place to bring all the weekends activities together and we could all connect over the weekend - a place to chat, comment, give shout outs to the wonderful artists.

Huge thanks to Miko Coffey who built us both this amazing forum and website.

Tip 5: Mix your drinks

You’re now decorated and are shimmering in your favourite outfit, chatting with your friends on the forum and getting ready to pump-up the music like you’re at the main stage. What is missing? An ice cold drink.

You can recreate that feel good feeling you get when you buy a drink at the bar at Together: dig out your Together cup, get stocked with plenty of ice and your favourite tipples. Then donate the £’s you save by running your own bar to our emergency appeal every time you have a drink.

Tip 7: Send a message and connect via this year’s Together photobooth

One of our favourite things about Together is laughing at all the photobooth pictures and seeing your amazing outfits whilst we edit them all together. We figured we have to keep it going this year. Let’s use the opportunity to send messages of love and hope to our friends near and far.

So, make a sign, take a selfie and share it with us all on our Photobooth 2020 forum channel

Tip 8: Put on your thinking cap & get ready for QuizAid

The wonderful folk of QuizAid will be laying on an online, multimedia pub quiz for you. Full details will be on our 2020 schedule, but you can get ahead of the game and invite all your friends to take part - if you bring along someone new to Together, they'll give your team a bonus point!

Tip 10: Spread the word

The more people who join the party & donate, the more vital funds we can raise for our emergency appeal to help support the vital work that Florence, Sarah and all of the team do on the ground in Kampala. So please spread the word and invite friends & family to participate.
