FNB Eswatini is set to enhance the experience of festivalgoers at this weekend’s MTN Bushfire Festival through a gaming-themed activation, onsite banking support and interactive customer experiences at House on Fire.
The bank, which recently confirmed a E437 500 sponsorship towards the internationally acclaimed festival, will once again serve as the official banking partner for Bushfire 2026. As part of its role, FNB will provide onsite ATMs, Speedpoint devices and technical support to ensure smooth and convenient payment transactions throughout the festival weekend.
Speaking on the activation, Chief Marketing Officer Sibusile Dlamini said the bank aims to create memorable and engaging experiences for customers while also making banking services easily accessible during the event.
“As the bank of firsts, we are always thinking about ways in which we can elevate the experiences of our customers and make them memorable. Throughout the Bushfire weekend, our teams will assist customers and emaSwati with account opening, accessing selected banking services, including online banking, as well as card assistance,” she said.
Dlamini revealed that the activation is built around the bank’s ongoing “Get in the Game” swipe campaign and will feature a range of entertainment activities designed to attract both young and older festivalgoers.
“We have curated an experiential activation for attendees to enjoy seamless interaction with our services and top up their festival wristbands. We will have a selection of fun games including a spin-and-win challenge where customers can play to win festival-aligned FNB merchandise. We also have a penalty shootout and gaming booth experience, as well as a slushie and popcorn bar,” she said.
According to Dlamini, customers will only need to tap their FNB cards when reloading their festival wristbands in order to access the full activation experience. The activation area will operate on Saturday and Sunday from 11h00 to 18h00.
