Open Mic Night – A Night of Arabic Music

Sat 15 July, 19:00
£8.50 + BF

Enjoy a relaxed evening of music & culture from the Arabic-speaking world at the sixth edition of ‘Open Mic Night – A Night of Arabic Music’.

After five sold-out Open Mic Nights which saw a range of performances from talented singers and musicians and drew in large audiences from across London and beyond, we’re back for the sixth time and, for this edition, we’ll be at Grand Junction.

Join us for a night immersed in the beautiful sounds of the region. Bring your friends, order drinks at the bar, and get ready for another incredible line-up of live performers bringing you everything from covers of the likes of Umm Kulthum, Fairuz and Mashrou’ Leila, to original songs and exclusive mashups.

After the scheduled performances, we’ll then be opening up the stage to the audience for anyone who would like to perform, so start getting those voices warmed up!

Stay until the end of the night to socialise with the performers and other audience members and to dance to your favourite Arabic party tracks.

See you in July!

This event is produced by Marsm.
