MARK YOUR CALENDAR-
? Dalida may have once found her love in Portofino, but this May we’ll be feeling her love right here in Cairo. On Friday, 30 May and Saturday, 31 May at The Theater in 6th of October, Dalida: Bint Shoubra — a musical production honoring the iconic vocalist’s life and musical legacy — will shine the spotlight on the Shoubra-born megastar. The production will be led by Lebanese singer Mirva Kadi, with a special appearance by Egyptian singer Haidy Moussa. You can book your tickets for both days through Ticketsmarché.
HAPPENING THIS WEEK-
Cairo Photo Week returns under the banner of Finding the View, featuring over 14 exhibitions, lectures, workshops, and networking meetups.

You can access all the exhibitions without a paid ticket, but talks and panels require either a day access or a full festival ticket and accept walk-ins. Workshops require advance registration. You can grab your passes from Ticketsmarché.

Customize your concert how you like: Pop-star icon Tamer Hosny will be the face of the Red Bull Jukebox on Friday 23 May in Taj City, where audiences will be able to choose the songs that the artist will sing, the performance style, and the stage ambience through a pre-concert vote and smart wristband during the show. Rising music producer El Waili and DJ Nedz will also be taking the stage. You can grab tickets on Ticketsmarché.
When hosting a birthday bash, it’s only logical to call up the Sharmoofers. On Friday, 30 May, the Boom Room will be celebrating its first anniversary with a bang.
