Indoor Things to Do in Kathmandu (Rainy-Day & Monsoon Guide)

When the monsoon settles over the valley and the afternoon cloudburst turns Durbarmarg into a river, the plan doesn't have to fall apart — it just moves indoors. Kathmandu has a surprisingly full under-a-roof calendar: hands-on workshops, pottery and cooking classes, film screenings and ciné-clubs, stand-up and improv, gallery openings, and live music tucked into lounges and basements. Most listings you'll find elsewhere just point you at the same static museums. This page lists what is actually happening indoors, and refreshes every day.

It's the wet-weather companion to our wider things to do in Kathmandu guide. Rain or shine, a comedy night or a slow wander through an art exhibition is the kind of evening a bit of drizzle only makes better.
