How Indomie Turned the 2025 Bole Festival into a Cultural Experience to Remember!

If you know Port Harcourt, then you know Bole isn’t just food, it’s an identity. And every year, the Bole Festival brings that love for smoky plantain and fish to life in the biggest way possible.

This year’s edition wasn’t just about food, music, and vibes; it was also about how well brands connected with culture. And one brand that completely owned the weekend was, of course, Indomie! Through its experience centre.

A Flavour That Spoke the Language of the Festival

Indomie came up with a simple but genius move, leading with its Crayfish Flavour. For anyone who grew up in southern Nigeria, crayfish is more than an ingredient; it’s a taste of home. Pairing it with Port Harcourt’s legendary roasted plantain? Instant magic!

One slurp of the combo and festivalgoers knew this wasn’t just sampling. It was a celebration of local flavour, reimagined, as they paired the Indomie Crayfish flavour with the city’s beloved bole, creating a unique and nostalgic taste of home.

A Vibe That Felt Like a Festival Within a Festival

Indomie didn’t just stop at food. Its experience centre transformed into one of the most vibrant corners of the entire event. From upbeat music to colourful photo spots, engaging games, and lots more, the Indomie experience centre became a natural meeting point for festivalgoers.

There was even more to enjoy. Indomie offered free face painting for everyone who interacted with the experience centre, adding colour and creativity to the atmosphere. There was also a dedicated kids’ area filled with excitement, featuring a bouncing castle and fun children’s games that kept the little ones entertained.

The air was filled with laughter, energy, and connection, a true reflection of the warmth and community spirit that define Nigerian culture. People stayed to dance, take pictures, share stories, and soak up the vibrant atmosphere. It wasn’t just an experience; it was a cultural celebration that brought people together through fun, flavour, and the unmistakable taste of Indomie.

Culture Meets Innovation

What truly stood out was how effortlessly Indomie blended culture with creativity. The brand tied its Crayfish Flavour to Port Harcourt’s rich culinary pride, offering festivalgoers a familiar taste presented in a fresh, modern way. The experience centre became a space where local culture met new ideas, capturing the vibrant energy of the city.

Innovation also took centre stage as Indomie introduced a unique twist that left the crowd in awe. Using drone technology, the brand created an unforgettable moment by flying a drone across the venue to deliver cartons of Indomie. It was a creative display that drew cheers from the audience and perfectly reflected how Indomie continues to reimagine experiences for its community.

It went beyond promotion or presence. Indomie demonstrated how deeply it understands the culture around it and how seamlessly it can merge that cultural connection with technology to create something extraordinary. By blending familiar flavours with forward-thinking experiences, the brand showed that it is not just part of the culture but also a driver of its evolution — bridging tradition, community, and innovation in one unforgettable moment.

More Than Noodles, It’s a Taste of Culture

In the end, Indomie reminded everyone that it is more than just noodles in a pack! It is a symbol of flavour, creativity, and culture brought to life. From children to adults, students to professionals, everyone who stepped into the Indomie experience centre felt part of something bigger, a celebration of culture expressed through food, art, music, and play.

From the free face painting and kids’ games to the lively music, photo moments, and the unforgettable fusion of Indomie Crayfish flavour with Port Harcourt’s beloved bole, every activity reflected Indomie’s deep connection to local culture. It was not just about sampling, it was about belonging!

At Bole Festival 2025, Indomie did not just show up; it became part of the experience, capturing the spirit of togetherness and innovation that defines Nigerian culture. Long after the festival ended, the feeling it created remained, proving once again that Indomie is not just a meal, it is a cultural experience shared with everyone!
