Tuesday open mic night hosted by Lizzy Hardingham, with several local performers playing short live sets at Mad Squirrel's taproom.
Lizzy Hardingham hosts her open mic at Mad Squirrel on Tuesday 24 November, from 19:00 to 21:00. It's a recurring Tuesday night that runs until 15 December 2026, with seven dates in total, so this is one of several you can catch across the autumn and winter.
Rather than a single headline act, the evening is built around a rotating line-up of local musicians. Lizzy introduces several performers throughout the night, each playing a short live set. Because the line-up changes from week to week, you'll hear different people and different styles each time you go, and the mix of regulars and newcomers in the crowd adds to that. It's the kind of night where you might hear a familiar face one week and someone you've never come across before the next.
