GNAWA MARRAKECH LONDON // LIVE MOROCCAN MUSIC


  • Grow 98c Wallis Road London, England, E9 5LN United Kingdom (map)

We’ve all missed live music and our friends over the last year so we’ve teamed up with the Music Venue Trust and the National Lottery to put on this show with Gnawa Marrakech London #ReviveLive

We welcome the incredible Gnawa Marrakech London to Grow for 2 sets of uplifting live Moroccan music + DJs till 2am

Gnawa music is a body of Moroccan and sub-Saharan African Islamic religious songs and rhythms. Its well preserved heritage combines ritual poetry with traditional music and dancing

The band features Yassine Ben Dioub and Jamal El Gadiri on gumbri.

We are inviting every ticket holder to bring a plus one FOR FREE! All you need to do to qualify for this offer is to show proof that one of you is a National Lottery player, either by showing us a physical lottery ticket, or one within your National Lottery app.

Music Venue Trust has teamed up with The National Lottery to help to #ReviveLive music in grassroots music venues across the UK this January with a fantastic line up of tours, one off events and special performances. And it's all about bringing friends and communities back together.

The National Lottery is supporting artists and crews to get out playing grassroots music venues in front of audiences... back where they are meant to be!

But live music venues aren't just about the shows. Live music is about bringing people together, celebrating that moment, that band, that song, together. 

MVT and The National Lottery want to invite you to create new moments of shared experience with your family, friends and communities, because we understand the important role music plays in bringing people together. So for every National Lottery Revive Live Tour event.

Who is the person you have missed going to gigs with the most? Who is the person you want to celebrate the return of live music with? Secure your ticket and let us know on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtags #ReviveLive and #ComeTogether
