Event description

Tongues of Fire Poetry Slams offer poets a chance to compete to represent Victoria at the Canadian Individual Poetry Slam (CIPS), which takes place each April as part of the Verses Festival of Words in Vancouver, BC. Poetry slams (including Finals) will be 2-round slams, with a time limit of 3-minutes in each round. 8 poets may compete in each slam. In the event that more than 8 poets sign up to compete in the slam, a random draw will determine who competes that night.
