ARE YOU READY TO SLAM.... Welcome to the 2026 Bunbury Fringe heat of the national Australian Poetry Slam.Yes, we're back for a second year of APS at the awesome Bunbury Fringe.
All Ages. All Peoples. All Welcome!
Hosted by Perth Slam, this is your Bunbury chance to blow away the Big Top with your TWO MINUTE poem.
Or simply come along and witness the literary fitness of Bunbury's emerging slam poets, as they compete for fame and poetic glory. You'll be blown away!
You may even get to be a judge. We randomly draw five judges from the audience. They decide who goes to APS WA Final in August.
First and second place poets will be invited to compete on the Main Stage at the Rosemount Hotel, North Perth in August for the WA Final. And the WA Winners will be flown to Sydney for the 2026 APS Final, held at the Sydney Opera House in October 2026.
Bunbury Fringe is paving the way for future regional poets to perform on a national stage, so come be entertained while supporting new, emerging talent.
