Enough Said Poetry Slam

Enough Said Poetry Slam is a group that has been running monthly poetry slams independently in Wollongong since 2012, and in 2022 became one of our Partner Programs. They host Enough Said Poetry Slam on the last Thursday of every month at their new venue, Side Door Theatre, as well as poetry workshops and satellite events.

Attending the poetry slams always costs $5/$10, and slam sign-up is on arrival. Go to @enoughsaidpoetryslam on Instagram and Facebook to see their upcoming events.
