The Green Room is one of Perth's busiest live-music pubs, a three-bar venue housed in a former brewery from the turn of the 18th/19th centuries, with rough-hewn stone walls, exposed beams and open fires. It puts on live music seven nights a week, and is home to the Red Pine open mic every Wednesday from 8pm - the longest-running open mic in Scotland, having not missed a week since 2010. Backline including drums, bass and guitar amps is provided, and all musical styles are welcome.
