Airtel Malawi plc has announced an upcoming live party to be hosted on its official Airtel Malawi Facebook page this Friday, May 15 from 8 pm to 9 pm in the evening. Viewers of the Live Party stand a chance to win 2GB data bundles if they share the live event to 10 or more of their friends by creating a watch party.

Airtel Malawi’s Managing Director, Charles Kamoto said the Live Party is an opportunity to engage and entertain our customers through the revered art of music while informing our customers about these two new digital campaigns. On the other hand he also attributed the idea of the party to the pandemic which has left people without means of entertainment.  We realize that during this period of social distancing, our customers are currently looking for sources of entertainment and ways to remain connected to their friends and family,”

The Airtel Live Party, ‘Katswiri‘ community champion initiative, and the My Airtel Mobile App are part of Airtel Malawi’s various projects aimed at keeping customers connected through more digital transactions in the wake of social distancing and the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Other initiatives have been the zero-rating of Airtel Money person to person transactions; zero-rating of online education sites: www.education.gov and www.khanacademy.org, health sites: www.covid19.health.gov.mw www.who.int and www.ncov2019.live and toll-free platforms: 54747 and *929#
