Ramadan’s television series are all ending as the scale shows you have gained over ten pounds. If there are things you regret not doing this Ramadan, there are still days left! And we gathered events worth heading to before planning your Eid destination and outfits.
Thursday
Randa Fakhry at Picasso Art Gallery
The originality in Randa Fakhry’s execution makes her work stand out, and her latest exhibition will undoubtedly leave you in awe. The artist’s use of colours, textures, and details must be seen in person to understand her level of skill and talent. The exhibition is available until the 20th of April, with part of the proceeds going to charity, so don’t miss it!

Ehab Tawfik at Layaly HydeOut
No one understands what having conflicting emotions means as much as Ehab Tawfik. We will never forget when, within the same album, he released “Sahrany” and “El Ayam El Helwa”. Aside from his music keeping up with our constantly contradictory emotions, Ehab Tawfik’s songs became a part of every Egyptian’s life. This Thursday, enjoy tasty Suhoor items as you watch him perform live at Layaly HydeOut.

Sharmoofers at Noisette
Nothing is more challenging than trying to mouth the words to Sharmoofers’ songs when you have no idea what the chorus says. The words that no one seems to know the meaning of and the immaculate vibes that Sharmoofers bring to the stage with upbeat music are what we love and appreciate about this band. Don’t miss a chance to watch them perform all your favourite songs live at Noisette in Mall of Egypt this Thursday.
