Darb 1718 — Attraction in Cairo

Their events seem ok. In regards to their “artist residency”, this is the worst artist residency I’ve done. If you are an artist considering to come stay here, especially a woman or other gender, let me save you from this wasted experience. In just two weeks living at Darb I experienced petty crime, sexual harassment, and daily breakdowns of essential infrastructure and staff, all while surrounded by constant noise, construction, fighting and dust, in a record heatwave and an area that’s disconnected and unsafe for women. Not all of Cairo is like this and residencies are usually more supportive and functional, even in extreme settings. If you want to come meet people and do a project in Cairo, stay at an AirBnb (if you can) for the same price or less and visit Darb and other venues on the side.

It's a really nice place for concerts and other cultural events. Everything takes place in a really laid back and informal atmosphere. Last concert I attended there we were sitting on beam bags in a garden and the performers were in the same place. It is located in an interesting place of Old Cairo but might not be very easy to reach for some people. I strongly recommend going for a relaxing, fun and engaging evening of music when they have...
