Women in Concert is an annual musical event, for and by aspiring female musicians in Nepal. Promoting a safe and comfortable platform for female artists is the main objective to conduct the concert. Yearly, they discover new, local artists and bands from different parts of Nepal as in this male-dominated music industry, female artists are often diminished and every so often they are even demoralized from pursuing musical careers.

The Women In Concert Foundation was legally registered as an NGO in Jan 2014. The Registration was a step ahead and a big leap for WICF to enable it to work as an organization on Women’s Rights issues which has always been their prime concern.

But sadly, because of the covid pandemic, the event was not conducted for the last 2 years. And this year they came with a bang and held the concert at Club Platinum with astounding female artists like Abhaya and The Steam Engines, Jasmin, Subheksha Rai Koirala, Kengal Mehar Shrestha, and Type III, Ashra and The Parables, Sajja Chaulagain, Megha, and The B.E.A.T.S.
