Poetry Slam

Word art on Hamburg's stages.

Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

    Jimmy Cornett & The Deadmen - An explosive blend of earthy blues and mellow Southern rock! The Hamburg band effortlessly blends the musical styles of blues, country, and rock, winning the 2018 German Blues Award for Best Album. But their true strength only becomes apparent live, where they thrill their audiences with scorching guitar riffs, gnarly grooves, and bluesy melodies. It's no wonder they play to sold-out venues and headline international festivals from Scandinavia to Spain.

    But the band's love of small clubs and random events is just as important. They collaborate creatively with well-known film directors and inspire with songs from real life. Jimmy Cornett (vocals, guitar), Dennis Adamus (lead guitar), Frank Jager (bass), and Claudia Lippmann (drums) create a bridge between the present and the past, making us believe again in the soul of music.

    The band has enjoyed enthusiastic supporters such as renowned American actors Eric Roberts and Emilio Rivera, musicians Willie Nelson and ZZ Top (who chose the Deadmen as the opening act for their French concert), and numerous enthusiastic concertgoers since the band's inception. In October 2024, the band released their new album "One Of A Kind," which debuted at #15 on the German iTunes Album Charts. The single "The Rider" reached #1 on the Spanish iTunes Rock Spain Charts.

    In November 2024, Jimmy and his band accepted Harley Davison's invitation to play in Santa Clarita, LA (USA) and welcomed star Robby Krieger of The Doors as a guest at their concert. The tour for the album "One Of A Kind" is coming in 2025. Don't miss the chance to experience Jimmy Cornett & The Deadmen live and become part of their captivating and unmistakable sound!

    Kamishibai: "Der kleine Weihnachtsmann"

    We are telling the story "The Little Santa Claus" by Anu Stohner and Henrike Wilson using Kamishibai. In this storytelling theater, large picture cards are inserted into a wooden frame and shown to accompany the story.

    Little Santa Claus is always the first to wrap the presents. But then it's always the same: the head Santa Claus in the village of Santas says he can't go because he's too small. But one day, Little Santa Claus makes a discovery: the animals also want a Santa Claus; they're really angry that they never get presents. Then Little Santa Claus knows what he has to do.

    No registration is required.
