A three-day music symposium titled Red Wind, Sonic Residues opened at Hayy Jameel in Jeddah on Thursday, 22 October 2026, and runs through Saturday, 24 October 2026. The programme takes place daily from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM at Hayy Jameel, on Arwa bint Abdulmutalib Street in the Al Muhammadiyah District.

Organised by Art Jameel under its Hayy Sounds programme, the symposium explores musical traditions, rituals, and practices across the Red Sea, with a particular emphasis on the Horn of Africa. The gathering brings together a mix of formats designed for both casual visitors and dedicated music enthusiasts.

Over the three days, the schedule features artist talks, listening sessions, exhibition tours, reading circles, demonstrations, live performances, and DJ and music sessions. The blend of discussion and performance aims to give audiences space to engage with sound both as a subject of study and as a living experience.

For residents and visitors in Jeddah, the event offers an accessible way to discover regional musical heritage within the city's cultural scene. No ticket price is listed in the available event details, while some sessions require an RSVP. Visitors are advised to check Hayy Jameel's "What's On" programme listing and the event-specific page for session details and any registration requirements before attending.
