Open Mics in Vermont

A page on hvwg.org lists this night, but may not be current.

The second Tuesday of each month, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

A Feb 4, 2026 newspaper article reported the launch of a Comedy Open Mic Night at the theater [s1]. The venue's own current listings page shows an upcoming instance on Wednesday, Sept 2, 2026, with a 7:30 PM signup and 8:00 PM show (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s2]. That matches the format listed here. A separate April 2026 newspaper article about a different comedy show at the venue confirms that comedy programming continues there.

Weekly on Mondays, 6:30 PM. Only one source reports it.

A regional listing service shows an occurrence at Marigold on Monday, Aug 17, 2026 [s1]. The venue's own page for the series shows an occurrence on Monday, Aug 10, 2026 [s2]. Sources vary on timing — some give a 9:00 PM end and one gives 10:00 PM, with one also giving a 6:00 PM start, so the recorded 6:30-9:00 PM window is uncertain, though day and venue are consistent across all sources (checked Aug 12, 2026).

A page on ibrattleboro.com suggests it may have ended.

Thursdays, 6:30 PM. Runs seasonally.

The hall's own 2026 season page lists first Thursdays on June 4, July 2, August 6, September 3 and October 1, 2026, 6:30-8:00 PM (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s1]. A 2024 local news article shows a June-through-October seasonal pattern in a prior year [s2]. The two years show the same shape, indicating this is an established annual series rather than one that ended.

The second and fourth Saturday of each month, 1:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

A poetry-network listing site shows this reading held on Dec 13, 2025 [s1]. An earlier listing on the same site shows an occurrence on Sept 14, 2024 [s2]. The most recent confirmed date is about eight months old, too long ago to confirm a biweekly series is still running, so confidence stays medium rather than high (checked Aug 13, 2026).

The sources disagree about whether it still runs.

The first and third Wednesday of each month, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.

An archived capture of the hosts' own site from Aug 11, 2025 listed further Ribbit Review dates on Dec 4, Dec 18, 2025 and Jan 1, 2026, all on Thursdays (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That does not match the first-and-third-Wednesday pattern listed here. An open-mic listing site crawled Nov 9, 2025 still described the event as first and third Wednesday [s2]. The venue's live events page currently lists no upcoming events [s3].

A concert-listing site shows an Old Time Jam at Radio Bean on Thursday, May 28, 2026 at 6:00 PM [s1]. That matches the venue, weekday and time listed here already. The venue's own calendar could not be read directly, so this could not be confirmed there (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s2]. No other open mic was found at this venue, despite some claims of a separate comedy open mic night.

A jazz festival's official 2026 schedule lists a Weekly Jazz Jam at The 126 on Wednesday, June 3, 2026 at 9:00 PM [s1]. An archived capture of the venue's own page from May 11, 2026 lists the same session, 9-11 PM [s2]. The venue's own page still carries it today (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s3].

An archived capture of the venue's own page from May 11, 2026 states that Levi Silverstein hosts a stand-up open mic every Tuesday with four-minute sets [s1]. The venue's own page still carries this description today (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s2]. The only dated outside schedule for the venue shows the Tuesday 7 PM slot given to a one-time festival event instead, likely a one-week swap, with no outside confirmation of the mic.

A jazz festival's official 2026 schedule lists a Weekly Funk Jam at The 126 on Thursday, June 4, 2026 at 9:00 PM [s1]. An archived capture of the venue's own page from May 11, 2026 shows the same jam [s2]. The venue's own page still shows it today (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s3].

A page on community.sevendaysvt.com lists this night, but may not be current.

The last Monday of each month, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website has gone offline since we found this.

The venue's stored website address now belongs to an unrelated business, and the connection could not be verified due to a certificate error (checked Sep 7, 2026) [s1]. A regional arts association's venue map and a news outlet's events page for the venue could not be read, and a statewide open-mic calendar did not list the venue as of August 2026. Whether the Monday open mic runs remains unconfirmed.

The sources disagree on the night.

The venue's own booking platform lists upcoming shows on Wednesday, Aug 19 and Wednesday, Aug 26, 2026, both at 8:30 PM, with more Wednesdays scheduled into September (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s1]. Its events index confirms the same forward schedule [s2].

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Sundays, 12:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

The venue's own events calendar lists the Olde Time Jam Session on consecutive Sundays through late July 2026, noon to 2:00 PM (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s1]. Coverage of a May 29-31, 2026 old-time music workshop weekend confirms an expanded Sunday jam built into that event's schedule at this venue [s2].

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

The only archived capture of the venue's page, dated July 8, 2025, describes a weekly Thursday open mic (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That capture is about 13 months old, and no other dated source names the Thursday event. The venue has dated bookings into August 2026, which shows it is still open but says nothing about the Thursday mic specifically.

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

The fourth Tuesday of each month, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

A Facebook post from a Vermont musicians group, dated March 24, 2026, is the only account found, with no dates given beyond March 2026 (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. The Internet Archive holds no capture of the Venue's Website after March 30, 2023, so there is nothing to check for later confirmation [s2]. No source covers April through August 2026 in either direction.

The library's own events page lists first- and third-Wednesday sessions, 6:00-8:00 PM, scheduled from May through October 2026, including dates around the check (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s1]. The town's own calendar confirms a dated occurrence on April 15, 2026 [s2]. A January 2025 newspaper article describes its partnership with a local arts group [s3]. That article describes the same first-and-third-Wednesday pattern.

The sources give the same night and time, but none confirms recent activity.

A local weekly-events listing describes a Monday Night Open Mic at the pub (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s1]. A conflicting claim of a second-and-fourth-Monday schedule comes from a Facebook account [s2]. That account is linked to an open-mic listing network rather than the pub itself, so it is treated as one possible source, not confirmation. The pub's guessed website is an unrelated placeholder page carrying a New York phone number [s3].

The Venue's Website states the open mic runs Wednesdays, 6:00-9:00 PM (checked Aug 12, 2026) [s1]. A dated Aug 20, 2025 listing confirms a weekly Wednesday mic here, giving a 7:00-9:00 PM time [s2]. That time differs from the Venue's Website. An undated listing site gives a conflicting 8 PM-to-midnight time with a different host, and a newspaper piece describes a different host lineage, so it's treated as unconfirmed.

A local weekly newsletter dated Aug 10, 2026 lists a Comedy Open Mic Night for Thursday, Aug 13, 2026 at Frost Beer Works, billed as a 'Summer Edition' with a 7:30-9:00 PM time (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That matches the cadence listed here; the time differs from the 7:00 PM start listed here, though it's unclear if that's permanent or a one-off. A review site references a further instance on Aug 20, 2026 [s2].

Tuesdays, 5:00 PM. Runs seasonally. Only one source reports it.

An archived capture of the venue's own event page from Jan 24, 2026 lists dated Tuesday instances at the Tower Bar on Jan 6, 13, 20, 27 and Feb 3, 10, 2026, 5:00-8:00 PM, hosted by Dan and Dan [s1]. An earlier capture from Jan 5, 2026 shows the same listing [s2]. This is a seasonal event, so its absence in August is not evidence it has ended, and whether it returns for the 2026-27 season is not yet known (checked Aug 13, 2026).

A listing on openmikes.org lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Sundays, 6:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

Weekly on Thursdays, 6:30 PM. Only one source reports it.

A regional weekly arts paper's Aug 12-18, 2026 listings show 'The Killarney - Irish Session with Gypsy Reel,' 6:30 PM, for Thursday, Aug 13, 2026, the day of the check [s1]. The same paper names this session on six dated Thursdays across 2026, most recently that date. The venue's own Happenings page describes the same session but carries no date, so it corroborates format, not currency [s6].

A regional weekly arts paper's Aug 12-18, 2026 issue, published the day before the check, lists a Monday 8:30 PM open mic at The Killarney (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. An earlier edition from July 29, 2026 lists the same night [s2]. A still-earlier edition from April 2026 also lists it [s3]. The paper's editions name this night back to February, spanning ski season and midsummer, so the open mic runs year-round, not just in winter.

The venue's events page suggests it may have ended.

Weekly on Thursdays, 6:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.

The venue's events page lists this night, but may not be current.

The second Thursday of each month, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

Earlier checks recorded instances on June 11, July 9 and Aug 13, 2026. The calendar that carries them could not be reached to reconfirm those dates (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. A dated listing for a separate show at the venue in July 2026 confirms it remains active and that the named host performs [s2]. A listing site separately claims a weekly Thursday 8 PM mic, conflicting with the recorded monthly cadence — an unconfirmed lead.
