About the event

Australian Poetry Slam Byron Heat with Miles Merrill and featuring Rachael Williams
Poets Run This!

The Australian Poetry Slam (APS) is giving the bullhorn back to the bards. The word nerds. The oral storytellers. The quiet thoughtful ones. The romantics. A poetry slam is a place for all voices. Join the nation-wide search for the people’s poet.

Local poets get two minutes to wow with their ideas in a form of spell casting called Slamming Poetry. They electrify your imagination. Then the audience sends two of these writers to represent Byron in the NSW Final with nothing but the mic, words and deep exhales of honesty. Who will make it to the National Final at the Sydney Opera House? You decide!

Elect a Poet – A National Slambassador for 2025 who will win a prize worth $20,000, including publication and a tour of Austral-Asia, sharing their creative thoughts and inspiring people everywhere to speak their own poetry.

Poets get your guts ready. Here, wrap your fingers around this mic.

Doors open/poet sign-up at:2.30pm
Slam starts at: 3pm
