Raise the Bar || Bristol Poetry Super Show at Arnolfini

A event held at Arnolfini on Thursday 18th April. The event starts at 19:00.


After an epic Bristol Poetry Festival Raise the Bar special last month, we are back at Arnolfini in April to celebrate the incredible poets of Bristol!

We believe Bristol is one of the best cities for poetry in the UK. Even in the world! With so many wonderful active poets being residents here, we are going to celebrate this with quick-fire sets from a handful of fantastic writers and performers, all bringing something unique to the stage. This will be an unforgettable show.

Featuring Deanna Rodger, Pete the Temp, Stefan Mohamed, Muneera Pilgrim, Tom Denbigh, Claire Guest AND Beth Calverley!

Including a music set from the awesomely witty and feel good acoustic singer-songwriter Gecko!
