About This Open Mic
The Night
The Egerton Arms is a characterful old hotel-pub on Gore Street in Salford, a stone's throw from the city centre, building a real reputation among music fans under landlord Richard Greenwood. Its 'Open Stage Wednesdays' run every Wednesday from 8pm — a relaxed night of live talent and good company. Just turn up, put your name on the board or have a word with the pub's music scout Dan Hindmarsh, and you'll get your slot; recent regulars have gone on to bigger stages. There's also Saturday live music, Friday karaoke and a free Sunday jukebox.
About The Egerton Arms

The pub gives up-and-coming Salford and Manchester performers a real stage and PA to be heard on, with a warm, community-minded crowd. Open Mon–Sat 11:00–23:00 and Sun 12:00–22:30.
