Room Art Space Cairo

Chillin’ nights

""Room Art Space" in Cairo is without equal across the city when it comes to live music, standup comedy, board game & karaoke nights."

Room Art Space Two has two branches: the first is in Garden City, near downtown, with a small space and a corner stage. The second one is in New Cairo, 30 minutes from downtown. Both are getting the same events mostly but with different schedules. Dominating in the area of art in the city from west to east, it introduces all kinds of music to fit all tastes.

For me, I prefer the New Cairo branch. It’s bigger but both have the same spirit. My favorite night there was the standup comedy. Just a perfect night after a long day at work. With different characters on the same team, I never got bored. They just knew it all, about what the life of a simple Cairo citizen was is like. And they truly know how to make people laugh from their heart. 

And it's not just standup comedy -- there are musical events, board game nights, and karaoke nights. So where else can you find such a place in Cairo?. Nowhere, so get yourself ready and go have some fun with the most talented local artists in the city.

Make sure to get their weekly schedule from the Facebook page.
