Event Description

The search is on for Australia’s 2022 poetry slam champion. This is one of many heats in the lead up to the APS 2022 finals.

All attendees must book a place. If you wish to compete, sign up on the night - first come, first served.

Entrants may perform two minutes of original work in front of a supportive audience. Speak, scream, howl, whisper or even sing your poem, story, lyrics or monologues in this live event where the audience is the judge. Two finalists from each state will receive prizes and a spot in the national final in October to perform at the Sydney Opera House.

The winner of the 2022 APS National Final is awarded a prize pack worth $10,000 including publication in audio, video and print; a two-week writing residency; professional mentoring; and a headline feature in Story Week 2022.
