poetry competitions
Poetry Rivals is back for 2010.
Have you got the winning words...?
You might not consider yourself ‘a poet’, but by sharing your words with us you could find yourself performing your poem in front of a panel of judges and a live audience, with the chance of winning a publishing contract with the UK’s largest publisher of new poetry! There is also a top of the range laptop computer up for grabs for the under 18 winner.
We are inviting entries on any subject and in any style. Whether you want to dedicate your heartfelt poem to a loved one; walk down memory lane; bring out the lighter side of life in humorous verse or have just written what you’re thinking and feeling, we want to read it!
The top 100 poets (50 x under 18s and 50 x over 18s) will be invited to our live Poetry Slam to perform their piece in front of a panel of judges and a live audience! The winners from each age group will walk away with the prizes.
You never know the winner of Poetry Rivals could be you!
