5 nights

Open mics in Whitby

Open mics are regular nights rather than one-off gigs: the same venue, the same night, week in, week out - 5 nights in Whitby. Each card shows the night, the sign-up time and the fee; most are free to watch and to play.

05 — Support grassroots

Support grassroots music in Whitby

Grassroots venues are where every act you have ever paid to see started out. Whitby still has 6 of them.

In Whitby The Fleece has Monday open mics and Thursday folk, The Little Angel puts on music four nights a week, and the Pavilion on the West Cliff takes the bigger shows.

Two pubs a day closed across the UK in the first quarter of 2026, and over the year to July 2025 78 grassroots music venues stopped putting on live music - 30 of them shut for good. Those are the rooms where new acts learn to hold an audience, where a first support slot happens, and where a Tuesday night can still turn into something.

Think of this as the city's noticeboard: 0 gigs across Whitby in the next four weeks, alongside 6 grassroots venues and 5 regular open mic nights, updated daily from the rooms that host them. There is no algorithm and no paid placement.

So go. Pick a night you would not normally choose, buy a ticket and a drink, and bring a friend. The sign-up below sends Whitby listings to your inbox each week, and if you run a room here, claim your venue page to keep it accurate. Start small: The Fleece hosts an open mic each Monday.

06 — Questions9 answersWhat's on in Whitby

Nothing is listed in Whitby for this weekend (Sun 1 Nov) yet - see the next 28 days below, or the Scarborough area open mics, which run every week.
We currently list 0 gigs in Whitby between 1 Nov and 29 Nov. The listings above are the full set, sorted by date and refreshed daily from the venues themselves — no algorithm decides what you see. For everything beyond this window, browse every upcoming gig in and around Scarborough in the gig directory or every city we cover.
None of the Whitby gigs currently listed are marked free entry, though many venues do not publish a price at all. Scarborough area open mic nights are your reliable free option — most charge nothing to watch or to play.
There is no clear busiest night in Whitby at the moment — the 0 listed gigs are spread thinly across the 28-day window. Listings update daily.
We track 6 grassroots venues in Whitby — see the Scarborough area venue directory for capacity, backline and opening times.
Whitby has 5 regular open mic nights that we verify on a rolling cycle. Each listing carries the sign-up time, slot length, entry fee and whether a PA and backline are provided — see the Scarborough area open mic finder, or the UK-wide finder.
Most Whitby venues in our listings do not publish a ticket price in advance. Grassroots entry is typically a few pounds on the door, and many nights are free. On the other side of the transaction, the Musicians' Union publishes national gig rates as the recognised floor for live engagements, and the ISM publishes guidance for self-employed musicians. Our own UK gig rate benchmarks show what artists are actually being paid by region and act type.
Grassroots rooms are where every act you have paid to see learned to hold an audience. Two pubs a day closed across the UK in the first quarter of 2026, and over the year to July 2025 78 grassroots music venues stopped putting on live music — 30 of them for good. Whitby still has 6 on our list. Music Venue Trust campaigns for them nationally; venues themselves navigate PRS licensing and local authority licensing to keep putting music on. The single most useful thing anyone can do is turn up and buy a drink at the bar.
Listing is free and takes about two minutes — submit through the Scarborough area gig directory and it is reviewed before it goes live. No account is needed and there is no listing fee. If you run a venue here, claim your venue page to keep its capacity, backline and contact details current. Promoters and venues booking acts can also post paid work or find artists directly.
