The Definitive Guide to Living in the Capital , Cairo , Egypt

As one of the most unique hotels in Egypt’s capital, Cairo Marriott Hotel proved to be one of the most popular spots for fetar and sohour this Ramadan. So much so that the hotel’s uber popular yearly tent, Som3a Basha, has extended its run till July 10th, offering some unique street-style food and kitsch-traditional take on the already quite inherently kitschy kheima concept.

But that hasn’t interfered with the hotel’s grand Eid plans, which span over all four days at the Empress Show Lounge. Starting at midnight, each night will see entertainment in the form of live music courtesy of Hamada El Leithy, Tarek El Sheikh and Amir Abdallah, with the legendary Saad El Soghayar wrapping things up on Saturday alongside Abdallah, who makes a second performance.

In addition, each night will also see a belly-dancer taking to the stage, including Dina and Sofia – see full schedule below.

Wednesday 6th: Hamada El Leithy (Singer) / Sahar (Belly-dancer)
Thursday 7th: Tarek El Sheikh / Sofia
Friday 8th: Amir Abdallah / Dina
Saturday 9th: Saad El Sogahayar & Amir Abdallah / Thria
