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.

    The home of the Poetry Slam in Hamburg.

    Elbwichtel – Ship’s horn and ribbon

    We’re taking the little Elbe gnomes on a grand harbour tour. It’s amazing what we’re getting up to here! Luckily, we’ve brought an accordion with us too, so the boat trip’s going to be proper fun!

    Oh dear, but let’s hope the storm that’s brewing won’t spoil our fun.

    Welche Farben hat der Jazz?  Gitarrist Elvin Rodríguez hat sich für seine Artist-in-Residence an der Jazzabteilung der HfMT die Pianistin und Visual Artist Juliana Saib eingeladen. Gemeinsam mit Caspar Rutsch (Saxophon), Julian Grüneberg (Bass) und Tobias Frohnhöfer (Schlagzeug) zeigen sie ein Projekt, das Komposition, Improvisation und Live-Visuals zusammenbringt. Die eigenen Kompositionen bilden die Grundlage für einen Abend, an dem Musik und Bild unmittelbar aufeinander reagieren.
