It’s a popular app, where one’s posts disappear within 24 hours. In Rwanda, the platform is increasingly becoming popular as an interactive social platform for young people to share moments and personal experiences. According to the organisers, the Snapchat party will be a showcase and a meet-up of different, people especially the youth who use the platform, and also those who do not use it to share experiences and learn how they can collaboratively showcase Rwanda to the world through the growing social media platform. The party will feature DJ Toxxyk and Burundian DJ Trick Trick. Organisers also believe that this is the right moment to inspire a positive change in the perception of nightlife in Rwanda. editorial@newtimes.co.rw
