About This Open Mic
The Night
Exeter Phoenix is the city's multi-arts venue, tucked down Gandy Street, and it runs a clutch of open mic nights including the inclusive Illumic night for emerging talent in music, comedy and the performing arts. Slots run roughly 6:30-8:30pm on a Pay-What-You-Can basis (£0 up to £10, your choice), with performers signing up via the website. There's also the monthly 'Taking the Mic' poetry night and an under-25s 'IRL' open mic — a properly welcoming, well-run stage rather than a noisy back room.
