Strictly Acoustic – Christmas Special

Strictly Acoustic – Christmas Special at The Earl Haig Club Bar

Join us for a very special festive edition of our ever-popular Strictly Acoustic Open Mic Session, hosted by Andy Johnson and friends.

On Tuesday, 18th November 2025, from 7:45pm to 10:45pm, we’re decking the halls and filling the bar with the sound of live acoustic music, Christmas spirit, and community cheer. Whether you’re a singer, songwriter, guitarist, or just someone who loves great live performances, this night is for you. The stage will be set, the mics and PA provided—just bring your songs, your talent, and your friends.

Strictly Acoustic has become known as one of the most enjoyable and well-run open mic nights around, combining an unbeatable atmosphere with fantastic music and warm community spirit. As always, it runs every third Tuesday of the month, but this festive session promises a little something extra—expect singalong favourites, seasonal surprises, and plenty of good cheer to get you in the Christmas mood.

Important note: Due to the high number of acts wishing to perform, we no longer take advance bookings. To make sure you get a slot, please arrive early and add your name to the board on the night. This ensures everyone has a fair chance to play, without having to cut performances short.

We’ll also be starting a little earlier than usual—7:45pm sharp—giving you an extra half-hour of live music and entertainment.

So whether you’re stepping up to the mic, supporting friends, or simply so
