Organized by ‘Cairo Jazz Club Agency’ and ‘Darb 1718 Contemporary Art & Culture Center’, Mawaweel Festival offers a culturally rich alternative Ramadan experience. Cairo Jazz Club Agency and Darb 1718 have always shared a common interest in taking on any projects which generate a sense of culture and authenticity through art and music. This Ramadan will see Mawaweel Festival into its 6th year of providing guests with a diverse program of musical performances, Tanoura acts, Bread II art exhibition, bazaars, mouled games, interactive arts, and much more!
This year Mawaweel Festival will take place in Darb 1718 on two Thursdays, the 16th featuring Nas Makan then Sharmoofers and the 23rd June featuring Mazaher then Massar Egbari. Each evening, Mawaweel will open its doors from 8.30pm allowing attendees to enjoy Bread II art exhibition, bazaar, mouled games and interactive arts stations while indulging in delicious Middle Eastern bites and beverages. Entertainment will start from 9:30pm each night with the first main act going on stage, followed by a short folkloric Tanoura act from 10:30pm and then seeing the final act on stage by 11:00pm. Also Mawaweel will be hosting four special events by the name of Mawaweel X El Sat7, taking place on the 11th featuring Ahmed Omar(AfriCairo), 18th featuring El-Nafekha, 25th featuring Eftekasat, and the final event taking place on the 2nd of July featuring El Dor El Awal all on Darb 1718’s rooftop venue.
