WORD-Web-Event-POETRYSLAM
Back to Programme

When: Wednesday, 27 August 6.30pm

Venue: Te Puna Wanaka Marae, CPIT, Coventry Street

Price: Free


Have your preconceptions about poetry rattled at the pinnacle event for Aotearoa’s emerging spoken word talent. This regional slam will see two poets travel to Auckland for the Rising Voices national grand slam.

Twelve of our finest young poets challenge the status quo, bring to life their experiences and inspire with their talent and passion. Rising Voices provides a platform for them to develop their skills and find a new audience for spoken word poetry. Some content may offend.

Hosted by Tusiata Avia, Judges Grace Taylor and Alice Andersen.

The Rising Voices Youth Poetry Movement is produced by Niu Navigations Limited. For information on workshops, visit their Facebook page.
