Hammer & Tongue Poetry Slam

An evening of exhilarating spoken word at Brighton's longest-running poetry night. Featuring our legendary poetry slam, along with performances from UK Slam Champion Mithago, comedian & poet Beborah and last month's slam winner, Sarah Charsley, hosted by the hilarious Leanne Shorley.

Doors open at 7pm and the show starts at 8pm.

PLEASE NOTE: This slam will be at The Seahorse (26 Kings Rd, Brighton BN1 2LN), not our usual venue.

HOW TO SLAM: Get yourself a 'Performer Ticket' and prepare an original poem of 3 minutes or less (no music, no props). Any style, any theme, anything you want! It doesn't have to be memorised and you're more than welcome to read from paper/your phone.

The Seahorse is an accessible venue (please use the beach entrance for step-free access).
