Open Mic Night. Theme: "Here We Fucking Go Again!" (7pm)

Vienna Storytelling Collective's hugely popular OPEN MIC STORYTELLING nights continue their autumn run on Thursday 19th November 2026 at 19.00h in Café Korb, with the audience-chosen theme "Here We Fucking Go Again!"

At our OPEN MIC STORYTELLING NIGHT performances range from stories, songs, poetry and stand up from aspiring writers, plus we always have a selection of experienced and/or established professional writer/performers to close the first and second halves of the evening for us. Vienna Storytelling Collective’s Open Mic event is one-of-a-kind for Vienna, an English language event where creative minds come together to share captivating stories.

Whether you are an author, poet, writer, or just someone who loves storytelling, this evening is the perfect place to share your work or simply be inspired by others. Our open mic sessions provide an opportunity to perform your short stories, poems, share your songs (piano available), or even try your hand at stand-up comedy or spoken word performances. It's a great way for newcomers to the city to meet like-minded individuals in the performing arts and fiction writing scene. It’s a gripping, fun and varied storytelling experience as audience or performer.

Please read the "What We're About" section for full details of what to do if you'd like to read or perform your work at our Open Mic sessions. To guarantee a spot - direct message Turan in advance. Looking forward to seeing you all for another wonderfully entertaining evening of stories and much more. All our evenings since Sept. 2021 have been full..... so come early. WE ASK FOR A MINIMUM 5 EURO DONATION, TO HELP WITH RUNNING COSTS.
