A pub room, a microphone and a monthly slot are the simple ingredients behind Markfield Open Mic, which begins its listed run on Thursday 11 June at the Coach & Horses in Markfield.
For readers planning ahead, the key details are straightforward: the event is at Coach & Horses, 196 Leicester Road, Markfield, LE67 9RF. The listing gives the time as 00:00, with the run continuing monthly through Thursday 14 October. Price and booking details are not stated in the published event information. The night is aimed at musicians and singers, with backing support or online tracks available for performers. For broader context on live entertainment in the area, a Leicester music festival guide covers another local event with music, dates and locations.
Monthly open mic dates at Coach & Horses
Markfield Open Mic is listed as a monthly event in a welcoming pub, giving local performers a regular place to sing or play in front of others. The venue named in the listing is Coach & Horses, on Leicester Road in Markfield.
The published run starts on Thursday 11 June and continues across a sequence of Thursday dates. The source lists performances on 11 June, 9 July, 13 August, 10 September, 8 October, 12 November, 10 December, 14 January, 11 February, 11 March, 8 April, 13 May, 10 June, 8 July, 12 August, 9 September and 14 October.
That gives singers and musicians a recurring slot rather than a one-off evening. For people in and around Leicester looking for a low-pressure performance setting, the useful detail is the repeat pattern: a monthly open mic at the same Markfield pub.
Backing help for singers and musicians
The event description is direct about who it is for. Musicians and singers are welcome, and the organisers say performers can be backed up or have tracks found online for them.
That matters for people who want to take part but do not arrive with a full band or live accompanist. The listing supports the idea of a practical, performer-friendly night, where backing tracks can form part of the setup.
The source does not list a programme, running order or named hosts. It also does not state whether advance booking is required. Anyone relying on a specific performance slot should check with Coach & Horses before making firm plans.
