POETS OUT LOUD presents Regional Remix: a dynamic event series bringing high-profile poets to the Tweed for three special performances in 2025.
Hosted by Sarah Temporal at the iconic M|Arts Precinct, each event features a change-making Australian poet on tour, and includes a community workshop with the visiting poet.
In August we feature Tracey O'Callaghan!! The "Queen of Sass" hits the road with her unique brand of ballsy, intelligent spoken-word, touring from her home in South Australia.
Each Poets Out Loud night includes a poetry slam and open mic for YOU to share your spoken-word creations.
Slam prize = $50 book voucher from Pulp Fiction Murwillumbah. Slam has a 2 min time limit, while open mic is non-competitive with 1 poem each. Get in from 6pm to sign up.
