About
Step up to the mic and test your timing in the fast-paced battle for the Poetry Cup! Each poet has just one minute or less to wow the crowd with their words. When the hooter sounds—stop reading or risk disqualification!
The winner isn’t chosen by judges, but by the loudest audience reaction—so bring your energy and make some noise! Clap, cheer, stomp, and shout for your favourite poet as they compete for the glory (and bragging rights) of taking home the coveted Poetry Cup.
