Mill Road Poetry are delighted to announce our upcoming programme of Poetry Nights for the autumn! Join us for three more poetry evenings led by Mill Road Poetry, in partnership with Hot Numbers Gwydir Street:
Thursday 25 September
Thursday 30 October
Thursday 27 November
Poetry brings together the many voices of our city, and enables us to explore ourselves and the world around us within a supportive space and welcoming community. Furious, joyful, light-hearted or loud - all poetry is welcome and we'd love you to share your work with us.
The format for our poetry evenings is a programme of readings by local poets and writers, curated by poet, Jon Morley. Our Poetry Nights at Hot Numbers are all about the atmosphere: spoken word poetry in a fabulous neighbourhood café, for a small, respectful audience, that is relevant, poignant and powerful.
Come and experience something special!Tickets will be available to purchase one month before each event and can only be purchased for one event at a time. Tickets for this event will be released for sale on the 30th September.
Doors open at 6.30pm. Poetry starts at 7.00pm and runs until around 9.00pm. The bar will be open serving cocktails, beer, wine and hot drinks, an assortment of deli items (sausage rolls, vegan rolls, quiche and focaccia) and cakes. Last orders will be at the bar at 9.00pm.
To ensure that each poet receives equal support, we also ask that you stay for the whole evening.We know that our Poetry Night tickets sell very quickly - but don’t despair if you find that this event has already sold out: do get in touch at the email address below, as we may be able to offer you a cancelled ticket on the door.
