Are you the next Australian Poetry Slam Champion? All you need is an original poem and two minutes on the mic. If you are one to shine from the audience, join us to cheer, snap, hold-up scorecards in this nation-wide celebration of spoken-wordsmiths.

Want to get inspired with a spoken word workshop led by a professional slam poet? Check out the ACT 2024 APS Workshop.

After the ACT Heat the ACT finalists compete for a place in the 2024 Australian Poetry Slam National Final.

Whether you’re performing as a poet or supporting local wordsmiths from the crowd – this is the place to be.

HOST: Andrew Cox

This Australian Poetry Slam event is presented by Word Travels and Canberra Slam @canberraslam
