The NorthBeast Regional Poetry Festival is dedicated to assembling poets from New England and beyond to uplift each other’s voices. In NorthBeast’s main event, 16 teams will compete in a regional poetry slam!

But NorthBeast is so much more than a competition: it is an opportunity to bring the poetry community together in a weekend of growth and camaraderie. Attendees can look forward to participating in open mics, a community fair, and workshops taught by esteemed local poets.

Want to support local poets, or even put your name in for a chance at judging? Join us at the Foundry for one of the biggest performance poetry weekends in New England! Although Eventbrite doesn’t have an option for sliding scale pricing, we want to give this option to people who are unable to pay for a full price ticket.
