Open Mic Night
Every Friday the common room turns into a stage. Sing, rap, read poetry or just cheer louder than everyone else — first drink's on us if you perform.
The Mad Vervet calendar never sleeps — grab a drink, grab a mic, and meet your new favourite people.
What's On
Every week brings something new. Here's a taste of the regular lineup across our hostels.
Every Friday the common room turns into a stage. Sing, rap, read poetry or just cheer louder than everyone else — first drink's on us if you perform.
Slow down on Sundays with a full Ethiopian coffee ceremony — roasted, ground and brewed right in front of you, with popcorn and stories on the side.
Saturdays belong to Bole. Our crew leads the charge through Addis Ababa's best bars — neon, injera platters and questionable dance moves guaranteed.
Stretch out last night's adventures every Wednesday in Nairobi. Mats provided, judgement left at the door, all levels welcome.
Book a bed and the party finds you. Dorms and private rooms in Addis Ababa and Nairobi.
