European Poetry Festival : Liverpool
July 6th 2024 at Open Eye Gallery

The first event in the Liverpool Poetry Space programme and the last of the European Poetry Festival for 2024! A brilliant afternoon of live poetry including some of the most exciting poets from Norway, Czech Republic and North West England. Pairs of poets presented brand new works of live literature, made for the day, and drawing upon the local Liverpudlian poetry scene as well as visiting poets, the events saw everything from sound poetry to subbuteo.

Featuring Tim Postovit and Sarah Dawson / Vilde Bjerke Torset and Michael Sutton / Steven J. Fowler and Tom Jenks / Thor Magnus Tangerås and Stephen Sunderland / Julia Rose Lewis and Sarah-Clare Conlon / Ondřej Macl and Lenni Sanders / Ane Thon Knutsen and Jesse Hill

An event in partnership with Liverpool Poetry Space. Event curated by SJ Fowler and Chris McCabe.

This 2024 event follows a brilliant Camarade held also at the Open Eye Gallery in April 2023, and all performances can be seen here europeanpoetryfestival.com/liverpool
