Presented by Tizita Sounds × Teddy G

An evening of Ethiopian records, cocktails, and good company awaits at Barkada Wine & Cocktail Bar.

We’re bringing the listening room to your table. Explore a curated collection of Ethiopian vinyl, revisit familiar favorites, and discover recordings you may be hearing for the first time. Come with friends, make it a date, or join us solo and meet someone new through the music.

Two ways to listen
Five tables will each feature a record player, with headphones and splitters provided so multiple guests can listen to the same record together. Choose something to play at your table, or take your headphones off and enjoy the curated vinyl selections playing throughout the lounge.

Between records, settle into conversation and explore Barkada’s cocktails and shareable bites, available to purchase separately. We’ll also have vinyl giveaways throughout the evening.
