Eid in Cairo? Catch These 5 Music Events for a Cheerful Week

June 27, 2023

A ten-day long Eid vacation demands fun activities for the Egyptians who will spend it in Cairo — the expected ghost town as people flee to beaches and resorts.

For those who will stay in the big city, there is a wide range of activities to enjoy — especially for the music lovers and concert-goers.

From karaoke nights to the vibrant tunes of Jordanian singer Aziz Maraka, there are plenty of events to catch this Eid break in Cairo’s dynamic music scene.

MAZEEK & MESHWAR | CAIRO JAZZ CLUB 610
For a vibrant night, catch the lively tunes of Cairo-based bands Mazeek and Meshwar as they take Cairo Jazz Club’s stage on the 29th of June. Meshwar is a band that mixes Reggae music — which is music that originated in Jamaica in the 1960s — with Egyptian tunes, while Mazeek is an Egyptian band that performs cheerful Nubian melodies.
