Tissa Rahim @ The Chapel

The Chapel at St. Andrew's-Wesley, 1022 Nelson St, Vancouver

Tissa Rahim

Tissa Rahim, the Persian Powerhouse, is a West Coast musician with a 40-city North American tour under her belt. Tissa freely explores her effortless Soul/RnB sound, infusing it with traditional Persian music her family has made for generations. Since 2019, Rahim has built up an enticing catalog as a solo artist, consisting of digital releases, videos and collaborations with artists in Vancouver and beyond. Fresh off of a West Coast tour, Tissa is back in the studio recording original music, funded by Creative BC, FACTOR and Socan.

The Chapel

Located in a recently restored heritage building (St. Andrew's-Wesley United Church), The Chapel is an intimate space perfect for happy hour, live music, poetry readings, and small gatherings.

On the corner of Nelson and Burrard, we're right in the heart of Downtown and the West End. Look for the glowing pink doors behind the 2/44 bus stop on Burrard St.

This spring we're hosting live music, pop-up, happy hours on select Fridays. Join us for wine, beer, and light snacks after work or before heading out for the night! Please note that we are 19+ venue only.

Doors open at 6:00pm, with live music starting at 6:30pm. Last call around 9pm.

This event is being held on the stolen, ancestral territories of the Musqueam, Skxwú7mesh-ulh, and Tsleil-Waututh nations. As we live and organize space as settlers on these lands, we have an obligation to continuously work to repair harms perpetrated upon Indigenous communities, presently and historically.

Oppressive attitudes and behaviour -- including but not limited to misogyny, transphobia, racism, fatphobia, cultural appropriation and ableism -- are not welcome here - this is a brave West End space.

Accessibility: There are 16 steps to the main entrance and an accessible entrance on Nelson St. (please note if this is needed in ticket add ons). The washroom is single-stall, all-gender, with additional gendered washrooms as needed.

Tickets: With a mix of high and low top tables, there's a spot for everyone. Reserve a whole table to have it to yourself or just book one ticket, sit next to someone new, and make friends.
