Athenæum Open Mic Night

About this event

We’re doing something new at the Ath this summer! The Athenæum is opening the mic, and we mean it quite literally! Music, poetry, stand-up, spoken word, a song you wrote last Tuesday: if you want to share it, there’s a stage waiting for you. If you’d rather just listen with a drink in hand, we’ve got you covered too. Open Mic Night is exactly what it sounds like: an open stage, a warm crowd, and no agenda beyond a good evening. Whether you’ve been polishing a set for months or you’ve got a poem scribbled on your phone that you’ve never read aloud, this is the night for it. Music, comedy, poetry, storytelling; the mic is genuinely open. Not a performer? Come anyway. The bar will be stocked, the atmosphere will be relaxed, and there’s something quietly brilliant about being in a room when someone shares something for the very first time. Please note that this event is strictly 18+ There is no entrance fee for this event. – Just come along and enjoy the fun!
