In these pages you will hopefully find interesting tips on how to take advantage of Cairo's many cultural opportunities, with particular attention to live events. Cairo Live Events Guide does not pretend to be exhaustive but will try to cover main events open to the public.

Cairo Mediterranean Literary Festival

WOW!!! This ought to be one of the main events of the year. From Wednesday May 5 toWednesday May 12, 2010 the Baad el Bahr Cultural Association in cooperation with the European Union and in partnership with a host of other institutions, will bring to Cairo many artists from the Mediterranean basin for a week of seemingly non-stop talks and performances as part of the 1st Cairo Mediterranean Literary Festival.
The programme is so dense that it would be impossible to cover it on the blog but fortunately, in a welcome display of professionality, the organizers have come up with a website where you can get all information you need, including maps to reach the venues where the events take place.
The link to the Festivals webpage will remain available in the "Latest Agenda and Festival" section at the top right side of the blog until the end of the event.

See you there.
