Monday, October 123 events

Among them: Egypt Press Photo Exhibition at Tahrir Cultural Center (AUC), Dance Hall Revolution Vol.6 at Cairo Jazz Club 610 and Crowd Gigs By Mohamed Helmy at Theatro Arkan, and 2 more. October is arguably the best month here: the heat breaks, Upper Egypt becomes comfortable again, and the festival season opens.
