The 2026 IPA Poetry Slam Season is upon us! We hosted a series of four qualifying poetry slams across the state in search of our 2026 IPA Poetry Slam Champion. The top three poets from each qualifier advanced to the IPA Poetry Slam Finals to be held on April 18, 2026 as part of Poetry Palooza! The winner of the IPA Poetry Slam Finals will be named the 2026 Iowa Champion and earn an IPA-sponsored spot in the 2026 BlackBerry Peach National Poetry Slam. This year's national slam will be held in Overland Park, Kansas, on July 23-26, 2026.
