Bobigny
The slam poetry world cup in Bobigny!
The town of Bobigny is hosting the sixth Grand Slam National de Poésie, the fifth Grand Slam Interscolaire and the third edition of the Coupe du Monde de Slam.
A symbol of innovative cultures, slam is a genuine means of democratisation in which everyone is allowed to speak, whatever their style, theme or genre: realism, provocation, exuberance, Romanism, cynicism, idealism, humour or satire…
Now established as the top slam poetry event in France, the Grand Slam National sees four-person teams from all over France competing. What is the ultimate objective? To win the national title! Participants battle it out in rounds over the days of festivities. The amusing and friendly poetry competitions end in semi-finals and finals for teams and a final for individuals. Three minutes for each poet, with no music, decoration or stage design, just their own humanity… Anything can happen!
From 16 to 21 June 2009 .
