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.

    Hamburger DOM - Winterdom

    The Hamburg DOM is one of the city's most traditional folk festivals and offers a diverse mix of rides, games and entertainment, food stalls and classic fairground attractions.

    Its origins date back to the Middle Ages: merchants, craftsmen, and entertainers sought shelter in the then Hamburg Cathedral (St. Mary's) during bad weather. Since the end of the 19th century, the DOM has been held on the Heiligengeistfeld.

    Wednesdays are family days with numerous discounts on rides, amusements, and games, as well as special food and drink offers. On selected dates, a fireworks display complements the program.

    Hamburger Oratorienchor / Hans Sachs Chor Nürnberg / Thekla Jonathal

    In Carl Orff’s »Carmina Burana«, the monumental power of the choir meets pure rhythm. This is particularly evident in this version for soloists, choir, two pianos and percussion. To perform this magnificent work, the Hamburger Oratorienchor has invited the Hans-Sachs-Chor from Nuremberg. 180 singers will bring the work to life in all its archaic power.

    Harburg Christmas Market

    "Small but nice" is the slogan here. With the picturesque, historic backdrop of the illuminated Harburg Town Hall, the small city of stands has been created with tiny, skewed, half-timbered houses, lending the Rathausplatz a festive mantle.
