Transylvania International Spoken Word Festival

Last year, we shattered expectations with more than 250 attendees. This year, we're going even bigger—kicking off poetry as we know it straight from its pedestal right back where it belongs - from the hands and mouths of the mavericks, in the ears and hearts of the soulful.

Epic Main Acts: Watch the best of the best from the global spoken word scene light up the stage.

Star Workshop: Grow as a performer with the UK National Slam Champion and learn to care for yourself and your audience

Open Mic: Step up, grab the mic, and let your voice be heard in front of a live audience.

Artist Talks: Get inside the minds of the poets who are pushing boundaries and breaking norms.

Heavy Competition: The Biggest Spoken Word Slam Circuit Romania has (YET) seen.

Unique Experiences: From street poetry jams to visual arts, immerse yourself in a festival like no other.

Join us and be part of a cultural revolution that's redefining poetry. The Transylvania International Spoken Word Festival 2024 is where words ignite change and creativity knows no bounds.
