Great news Zimbabwe, Starlink has finally opened up capacity in Bulawayo! That means residents in the City of Kings can now place orders for the satellite internet service. If you’re in Harare, don’t worry, your turn is coming soon.
This update comes after months of frustration for many Zimbabweans, as Starlink’s initial launch saw kits selling out fast due to sky-high demand. But now, Bulawayo is back in the game, and Harare is next on the list. Let’s break it all down.
What’s Happening with Starlink in Zimbabwe?
Starlink, Elon Musk’s satellite internet service, has been a lifeline for many Zimbabweans tired of slow speeds, high costs, and frequent outages from traditional internet providers. However, since its launch, the service has been plagued by capacity issues, leaving many unable to order kits.
Now, Starlink has restored capacity in Bulawayo, allowing residents to place orders again. This is a big deal, especially for areas where traditional ISPs have struggled to deliver consistent service. For Harare, Starlink additional capacity is on the way, though there is no given timeline yet.
If you’re in the capital, keep your eyes peeled—orders could open up any day now. And judging by how quickly Starlink sold out last time, you’ll want to act fast when it does.

The company has already restored capacity in neighboring countries like Mozambique and Botswana, and now Bulawayo is back online. Harare is next, and it’s only a matter of time.
