Poets #ignitethemic writing revolutions and shredding taboos

Poetry is everywhere! In the jolt of a pothole, a river’s babble and the pixelated face of a lover… in the spotlight, in front of a crowd. Australian Poetry Slam (APS) combines stories, poems, theatre and hip-hop as writers slay the mic with words.

Watch The APS Slam Champion, Huda the Goddess deliver her finale performance before she hands over her crown.

Who will take out the grand prize? A writer’s festival tour worth over $10k. Warning: you may be chosen as a judge. Get ready to click, clap and scream for our nation’s best wordsmiths as they measure the heart-rate of 2022.
