Dichtungsring

For fans of a good poetry showdown, it has long since become an institution: Dichtungsring, the city's oldest recurring monthly poetry slam.

On the first Tuesday of every month, poets compete for the favour of the audience, cheered on by hosts Etrit Hasler and Moët Liechti. Sometimes political, sometimes funny, always eloquent and never boring, seasoned slam performers and newcomers engage in a heated exchange on the Albani stage.

Everyone is welcome to take part. You can register here.
