Bath Open Mic FAQs

6 answers about open mics in Bath, from the best nights for new performers and what is on tonight to whether they are free, which have full backline and how to get a regular slot.

Bath has 4 different open-mic nights running across the week. Use the day filter above to see what's on tonight.
Open mics are the regular, low-key layer of the scene. For the ticketed and one-off bills, what’s on in Bath over the next four weeks lists every grassroots gig we hold for the city — often at the same venues that host these mics. The full evergreen listing is the Bath gig directory.
None of the 10 open mics we list in Bath has an entry fee listed - most open mics are free to play and watch, but check with the venue.
None of the listed Bath mics provide a full backline yet — bring your own gear.
