Rules

The points are not the point!

– Allan Wolf


Rules

  • Poetry Slam should be fun! Exaggerated ambition, jealousy and competitiveness have no business here at all.
  • Only self-written texts can be recited.
  • Texts by others and singing are only permitted as quotes and may constitute only a small part of the text.
  • No aids such as disguises, objects, animals, etc. are allowed.
  • The allotted time to recite a slam is generally 6 minutes.
  • In those six minutes any number of pieces can be presented.

Procedure

  • About 8-12 poets participate in a slam. These are chosen by a drawing in the preliminary round groups.
  • After each group, the audience decides by applause vote on the placement of the slammers.
  • The Slammers who have received the loudest applause in their group move on to the final
  • In the final, new texts must be recited.
