The John Lennon Tribute Festival is currently taking place in Liverpool until the 9th December.
the Poetry Slam is part of the festival and has a first prize of £1,000. The slam will be co-hosted by Jason Richardson of poetry collective - the Wirral Ode Show – and is to be held at the Liverpool Institute For Performing Arts at 7.30pm.
The contest will be judged by a team led by the Poet Laureate – Carol Ann Duffy. The slam entrants have won their way through to this final by winning one competition already. It promises to be an exciting and nail-biting event, one not to be missed.
Carol Ann Duffy said, “I’m delighted to judge this competition which honours a famous son of a wonderful city. Liverpool is a city vibrant with language and poetry and from his earliest lyrics John Lennon displayed a poet’s sensitivity to language.”
