Open Mic Night (Please Read Description)

Open Mic Nights run fortnightly on the first and third Tuesday of each month. We invite you to join us and showcase your original music to a dedicated community of local music lovers.

**Event Setup**

Our stage is fully equipped for acoustic guitar and vocals, and an AUX connection is available for backing tracks. If your performance requires a more comprehensive technical setup, please email jon@hotboxlive.co.uk in advance to discuss your requirements.

The primary goal of these events is to foster a supportive community of like-minded musicians in Chelmsford. To maintain a fresh and engaging atmosphere, the evenings will be overseen by a variety of guest hosts.

**Tickets & Cancellations**

- Musicians: Book a "Musician" ticket to perform. Duos need only one ticket.

- Spectators: Book a "Spectator" ticket to enjoy the show. Walk-ins are welcome if time permits.

- Cancellations: Email returns@hotboxlive.co.uk if you cannot attend, so we can reallocate your spot.

**Bar Policy & Donations**

To ensure these events remain free for the community, we rely on bar sales. Bringing outside drinks is strictly prohibited. We also encourage those who can to support our ongoing efforts by donating at the venue or on our website.

**Play & Stay Policy**

This is a "play and stay" event, not a "play and leave" event. We expect performers to remain and support their fellow musicians throughout the evening

**Under 18s,** must be accompanied by a responsible adult (parent or guardian)
