2025 PROGRAM
Manly Poetry Salon
DATE:
Saturday 21 March, 2026
LOCATION:
Sky Theatre
COST:
$30.00
Six voices, six ways of seeing the world. This freestyle poetry showcase brings together an eclectic mix of poets whose work spans the page, the stage, and everything in between. Each poet will share recent work, whether read quietly or performed with all the energy and presence that poetry can demand when it leaves the printed word behind. This is poetry as a living, breathing art—diverse in form, and reflecting the moments we live through.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY
The Manly Writers' Festival acknowledges and thanks the original storytellers on the lands on which our events take place, the Gameraygal people of the Eora Nation. We acknowledge and respect their continuing connection and culture, and we pay our respects to ancestors and Elders, past and present, as well as emerging leaders.
