- The Poetry Slam is an opportunity for 12 talented contenders to showcase their poetic skills and share their stories with the world. Attendees will be immersed in an event of powerful and inspirational performances that will leave them moved, entertained, and energized.
- Contenders will have the chance to express themselves and tell their truth through their poetry. They will be judged based on the content of their work and how well they perform it, so it's essential to bring your A-game.
- The competition consists of two rounds. The first round is where contenders submit their work ahead of time, and only 12 winning poets will be selected to compete in the final round. In the final round, each poet will perform their poem live on stage, with a time limit of 3 minutes each, to determine the ultimate winner.
We invite all talented poets to sign up for the Poetry Slam and let their words speak for them. And for attendees, get ready for an unforgettable event of poetry that will inspire and uplift you.
