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.

    Sinnesstreifzug mit Glühwein/ Apfelpunsch durch Speicherstadt und Hafencity

    Even in the cold season, it's time to sharpen your senses! On our special winter city tour, the Winter Sensory Tour through Hamburg's Speicherstadt and Hafencity, you'll experience the historic yet modern Hamburg up close.

    What does the harbor smell like? Can you taste Hamburg? Who or what are Quiddjes? What's the deal with the pepper sacks? We begin our tour in the historic part of the harbor, the UNESCO World Heritage Site Speicherstadt. Here, we take a look at old brick warehouses and are enchanted by a quaint courtyard.
    We will take you back to Hamburg of days long gone with small and surprising touch, smell and taste experiences.

    We take these sensory impressions with us on our journey to the modern HafenCity – a contrast beyond compare. Here we see how a former port area has gradually developed into an urban living space and will continue to develop.

    In addition to interesting facts about Hamburg's history and present, it is above all your imagination that will receive one or two impulses on our sensory tour - so that you don't just look at Hamburg from the outside, but experience it with your skin and hair.

    And to warm your heart even in winter, we invite you to a delicious mulled wine or apple punch at the end of our tour in our Rosinenfischer Kontor in the Speicherstadt.

    Songs of Absence

    Anna Konjetzky & Co

    “Songs” and “absence,” the two main words in the title, are the content and program of this work.

    From a feminist perspective, "Absence" examines the things that are missing, invisible, disappear in the gaps, want to be said or not, and questions whether absence is "merely" a lack of desire or inability to see. "Songs" points to a formal exploration, both of the song form and album structure itself, and, in the longer term, of the performance structure, which can range from individual songs to the entire album.

    It is about the composition, the physical, sonic, spatial composition of an evening that functions like a polyphonic parkour: polyphonic, polyphonic, an autonomy and independence of the voices.

    Press comment:
    “… conceived like an album, permeated with powerful images, cleverly positioned as feminist.”
