National Poetry Slam

August 7 – 11

The 23rd annual National Poetry Slam is taking place in Charlotte this year! That’s kind of a big deal. The best poets from across the country will team up, come to Charlotte and share their work for the grand prize. If you like poetry, spoken word, dancing speech or whatever you’d like to call the art – you must check out this event. You can purchase tickets for individual competitions or get an all access pass.
