Tasmanian Poetry Festival
The Tasmanian Poetry Festival is an annual celebration of poetry, founded by Tim Thorne in 1985. The event happens overa period of 3 days in October each year, and various lead up events. It features local and interstate guest poets, workshops, open mic sessions, and events like the Launceston Poetry Cup. The festival aims to foster community interest in poetry, support poets of all experience levels, and expose audiences to diverse poetic styles and international voices.
