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.

Whether you’re performing as a poet, or supporting our local wordsmiths in the crowd, we’d love to see you!

If you are a non-verbal poet, struggle with vocal communication or a member of the deaf community, you are welcome to have an interpreter read your poem out loud for the comp. As long as the original poet is next to the speaker, it counts!

HOST: Miki Ponting-Boyd

This Australian Poetry Slam event is presented by Word Travels and Miki Ponting-Boyd.
