About This Open Mic
The Night
Farnham Maltings runs a relaxed, inclusive open mic in its atmospheric Cellar Bar — a low-ceilinged, exposed-brick room — bringing together new and established acts sharing poetry, spoken word and comedy alongside music. Performing slots are five minutes each and you sign up in advance via the form on the Maltings website; slots fill quickly, with a waiting list when full. The Cellar Bar has a small stage with lighting and a house sound system, and material should be suitable for ages 16 and over.
About Farnham Maltings
Farnham Maltings is one of Surrey's busiest and most diverse arts centres, housed in a converted 1792 maltings building beside the river in the heart of Farnham. Its Great Hall and intimate studio spaces host a year-round live music programme spanning jazz, folk, classical and touring artists, alongside a relaxed monthly open mic for new and established performers. With a well-stocked bar, café and a long-standing reputation as a community cultural hub, it's a welcoming stage for both first-timers and seasoned acts.
