SUMMARY:Beirut and Beyond International Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:https://leb247.com/events/beirut-and-beyond-international-music-festival-1203\n\nABOUT BBIMF 2026 BBIMF is an annual festival that promotes and supports rising and established artists from the Arabic-speaking region and beyond. We always strive to spotlight new talent\, blend genres\, and uphold gender equality. In light of the geo-political situation escalating in the Arabic-speaking region this past year\, as the genocide continues to unfold in Gaza\, and Lebanon faces relentless violence\, displacement and destruction\, we believe it’s important for us to come together\, in the name of music. Beirut and Beyond International Music Festival is back with a new edition\, unfolding in different venues around Beirut\, from the 3rd to the 6th of December. The artistic program features 15 artists\, including 2 new productions premiering on the BBIMF stage\, with artists from Lebanon\, Palestine\, Tunisia\, Syria\, and Egypt\, highlighting the diversity coming out of the region\, with artists performing for the first time ever in Lebanon. DAY 1 Dreamy guitar from Noise Diva\, North African memory reimagined by Khalil EPI\, Nadah El Shazly and 3Phaz’s electroacoustic Arabic sound\, and Makimakkuk’s Sovereign Rap: four distinct voices open BBIMF 2026. Together they set the tone for an edition devoted to bridging the Arabic-speaking region through music. DAY 2 From YUNIS’s ritual electronics and Dallo’s Arabic-rooted productions to Rizan Said’s Dabke that keeps crowds dancing\, the club night of BBIMF 2026 stretches across the whole spectrum of club sound. Roujajoux and Yas Meen Selec
