Live music in Fatih: from Kumkapı fasıl to jazz

Fatih is the historic peninsula, home to the city's best-known sights, but after dark it has a musical side too. Ensembles play in Kumkapı's meyhane streets, fasıl comes with fish on the Galata Bridge, and there's a jazz club in the same district.

GIGO puts Fatih's live music venues on one map. For fasıl there are Kumkapı Sütliman Fasıl Meyhane, Kumkapı Hünkar Restaurant and Kumkapı Afrodit. On the Galata Bridge, Beyaz İnci Restaurant is tagged for fasıl and Turkish classical music. For a dinner show there's Gar Musichall, and for jazz, soul and fusion, Gregor Jazz Club.

Fasıl, Turkish classical, jazz, Balkan, oriental: filter by genre and pick your table. Schedules and opening hours change, and GIGO's listings are community-researched, so double-check with the venue's own account before you go. Especially on weekends, call the venue ahead to book. Find the gig. Go.
