Bob they have a large spoken word section of the festival.
I believe it will be extended to 31st but I don't want anyone, who may be interested, to miss out.
There is a poets Breakfast every day and loads more I'll pm you the phone number of the coordinator, if you are really keen. They want people who will offer workshops as well as concerts and there is a yarn spinners award and a Reciter's award. Then they also have a 'world debate' which features poets. They have had topics like 'Is Poety better than ..... whatever' some have been a riot. The venue seats over 3000 and is always full.
