Looking for just open and mixed rooms? Visit the Manchester open mic page.
Note: event labels can vary from city to city. What one scene calls an open mic, showcase, new material night, or pro night may be classified differently elsewhere.
Where this data comes from: room details come from a mix of public listings we track automatically and corrections submitted by the community. When a moderator manually verifies or fixes a room, it gets locked from automatic updates so a future sync can't overwrite the correction.
