Sapphic Sounds

Come along to our Sapphic Sounds Open Mic Night, an inclusive platform for artists to showcase their creative talents through music, comedy, and spoken word. In response to the male-dominated nature of open mic nights, we have created a safe and welcoming space for women and non-binary folks to freely express themselves and their art. However, we want to emphasise that everyone is welcome to attend and support the performers!

Profits from this fundraising event will be directly supporting SHRUB Coop, which focuses on environmental sustainability and community initiatives.

Let's come together, celebrate diverse voices, and make this Open Mic Night as great as the last one!
Due to the exceptionally high demand of our first open mic night (which we called Women and Non-binary Led Open Mic night), we are releasing some advance tickets through eventbrite with a small number of additional tickets available on the door.

There will be tea, coffee and cakes available for purchase.

Access Notes:

The Zero Waste Hub is on the ground floor with a small step at the entrance. A ramp is available upon request.
