What is Story Slam?

It's a series of open mic events run by Fighting Words that provide an opportunity for young people between 13-18 years from across the island of Ireland to share their stories, poems and songs at in-person and online events.

We know that young people in Ireland are full of creativity and now is your opportunity to share it an audience of fellow writers, family and friends!

Cool! Will it be recorded?

Yes! Story Slam events will also be recorded for an episode on The Fighting Words Podcast.
