Say Owt Slam is a raucous evening of poet vs poet in a fun and frantic night of verse.
Poets have three minutes to wow YOU, the audience. Expect an evening with humour and heart, comedy and charisma, stories and sizzling spoken word! Plus special guest poet, Molly Naylor, whose work has toured nationally and broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and Sky One.

All slammers get free entry, and the winner will receive a small prize, plus the honour of being the first Leeds Lit Fest Say Owt Slam champion!
Standard tickets for this event are priced at £8, but we have also included an option to buy a £13 ticket if you would like to support Leeds Lit Fest by giving a little more.
