A Word from the Founder

Nour Nourallah, the founder of SAHRA, reflects on the journey: “Sahra is not just another club night. It is a social statement, creating our own alternative space. When you come to Sahra, you are transcended in space and time. You are home.”

By bringing together an eclectic mix of Arabic music and fostering a safe, welcoming environment, SAHRA not only creates unforgettable experiences but also champions a crucial social message.

If you happen to be in Berlin, don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience the best of SWANA culture and music. Mark your calendars for July 12, 2024, and join the celebration at Lido Berlin.
