About This Open Mic
The Night
Lavery's is Belfast's oldest family-owned pub, on Bradbury Place since 1918, with live music several nights a week. Its open mic is a brilliant all-ages night run with Oh Yeah Music Centre for young musicians under 18, on the first Monday of every month at 8pm, where both originals and covers are welcome. Get in touch with the organisers (caoimhe@ohyeahbelfast.com) to grab a slot — a genuinely supportive first stage for emerging Belfast talent.
