Live Music in Kathmandu
Kathmandu runs on live music. On any given night the valley has something on — an acoustic singer-songwriter in a Thamel basement, a jazz trio in Jhamsikhel, a touring headliner on Durbarmarg, a traditional Newari set in a Patan courtyard, or a DJ residency that stretches till sunrise. This is the full, always-current calendar of every upcoming gig, concert and DJ night across the city.
