Open Mic Night @ Digby's Pub and Patio
Set on the courthouse square a short drive from Purdue University the family-owned pub offers a friendly and low-pressure room where musicians can try out new songs and meet other players and enjoy great pub food between sets.
What to Expect
The open mic welcomes singer-songwriters and acoustic duos along with guitar players and anyone with a song to share. Covers and originals are both welcome and the downtown crowd is relaxed and supportive. It is a comfortable spot for a first performance and a handy place for experienced musicians to road-test material before a gig.

Food and Drinks
Digby's kitchen serves fresh never-frozen pub fare with locally sourced beef and tenderloins from This Old Butcher Shoppe. Grab a burger or cheese bricks with raspberry sauce or a breaded tenderloin and pair it with a craft beer or a handcrafted cocktail. On nice nights the area's largest patio is a great place to hang out before or after your set.
