Is Mackay’s next Aus Poetry Slam (APS) Champion among us? The CQ Heat is coming to town and it’s the perfect opportunity for aspiring poets to showcase their talent!
With just an original poem and 2 minutes on the mic, participants have the chance to impress the audience and judges. The top two poets from the event will move on to compete in the QLD State Finals in Brisbane on September 27.
For those who prefer to cheer from the sidelines, attending as part of the audience is just as important. Your support helps create an encouraging atmosphere for local wordsmiths.
Inclusivity is a priority at APS, and non-verbal poets or members of the deaf community are welcome to have an interpreter read their poem aloud, as long as the original poet stands beside the speaker.
The event will be held on Sunday, August 25, 2024, from 5:00 PM to 7:30 PM at the Mackay Surf Life Saving Club. Tickets are $15 and include complimentary platters with gluten-free and vegetarian options. Children under 5 are FREE.
Now is the time to secure your tickets and witness the undeniable talent that lies within our region.
Please note that some poetry content may not be suitable for younger audiences.
