Nawafiz نوافذ is the name of the first edition of our Arabic music festival! On Friday May 24 you can enjoy the diversity of music, food and performances from the SWANA region (South West Asia North Africa). Whether you're a fan or just looking for something new, our festival promises an unforgettable journey through the heart and soul of Arabic music.

There has been a line-up change: unfortunately, the performance by Afroto had to be cancelled. Therefore, Marwan Moussa was added to the line-up.



Marwan Moussa - Egyptian rap

Marwan Moussa is an Egyptian rapper and producer that pairs comedic, loopy lyrics with catchy hooks and a fly production. In 2022 he won the 'Best Artist in African Hip-Hop' award and in 2023 he was ranked third among the most listened to Arab hip-hop artists of all time.

Shkoon - Arabic electro

Shkoon blends arabic folklore, meaningful lyrics with western electronic music. They merge traditions and styles while showcasing the limitless possibilities of music. Their harmonious melodies led them to the pinnacle of Arab electronica, where they became known for their musical sophistication.

El Sawareekh - Mahraganat / Arabic pop

El Sawareekh is a well-known arabic pop performance duo from Cairo, Egypt. They have established a loyal fan base in Egypt and beyond, proving key players in popularising and defining Mahraganat as a genre with their viral successes like 'Laa' and 'Eda Eda.'

Aïta Mon Amour - Feminist electronic music from the Maghreb

Aïta Mon Amour bridges the gap between the present and the distant past by returning to the traditional Moroccan 'Aïta' (lamentations). These songs were passed on from woman to woman and originated from the Shikhats - feminist singers from the 12th century who fought against oppression and injustice. Aita Mon Amour mixes contemporary electronic sounds with traditional string instruments such as the oud, violin and outar.

Disco Arabesquo & Dabke Night

This 'Disco Arabesquo Night' will take you back to the sounds of the 90's & 00's Arabic Middle-East (South-West Asia) and North Africa. You will hear the voices of Fairouz, Mohamed Mounir, Simone, Cheb Khaled, Faried el Attrache, Hamied el Shaeri and many of their friends. Dabke Night brought the populair middle eastern dance 'dabke' to the nightlife with a vibrant nightlife concept that combines the authentic energy of the dabke dance originating from Libanon, Syria, Palestine and Iraq.
