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.

    with Helge Masch - Botanical Special Garden Wandsbek -
    Garden knowledge for children between 6 and 12 years and their grandparents in the Botanical Special Garden Wandsbek

    The "Tree Memory" is an opportunity for children between the ages of six and twelve to learn to recognize and differentiate between different types of trees in a playful way. To begin with, there is a tour of the garden, which is accompanied by a quiz in which the children have to actively think. Then a memory game is played in which different parts of different trees have to be correctly assigned.

    The tour takes place in the open air of the Wandsbek Botanical Special Garden at Walddörferstraße 273.
    Hortus is the Latin word for garden. The offers entitled “Garden Knowledge @hortus” take place as in-person events in the Botanical Special Garden.
    A donation of two euros per person is requested (children free).
