The Vancouver Poetry Slam
Canada’s Longest Running Poetry Slam Continues!

@ Cafe deux Soleils: 2096 Commercial Drive (Commercial & 4th Ave.)

The 1st, 3rd, and 5th Monday of every month is the Van Slam, a regular poetry slam open to everyone.
The 2nd Monday of every month is the Alt Slam, a themed poetry night
The 4th Monday of every month is the Youth Slam, for competitors between the ages of 13-22 (but for audiences of all ages!)

On May 26th is the Youth Slam, featuring Katie F-S.

Katie F-S has posed as many things in her many lives, including poet, playwright, preschool teacher, muppet and person who needs glasses to see. She is generally over-caffeinated and has more tattoos than her mother knows about. She has a scar on her chin from proving she can fly. Furthermore, she plans to now speak exclusively in the third person; it’s the most fun she’s had all day.

To compete, you must be between 13-22.

To check it out & support the Youth Slam, you can be any age.

Doors and Sign Up at 7:15pm. Show starts at 8pm.

Still only $5 at the door

The Youth Poetry Slam is a relatively new event that will be held on the 4th Monday of every month at Café Deux Soleils. The first Vancouver Youth Slam was held last year at the Vancouver East Cultural Center.

All poets, all ages, & all styles are welcome in the spirit of fair play and good times!
