TUNBRIDGE WELLS - TW Poetry Festival

  • The Forum Tunbridge Wells, England, TN4 8BX United Kingdom (map)

The Tunbridge Wells Poetry Festival presents World Poetry Slam Champion Harry Baker. He is a poet and a maths graduate. He writes about important stuff like hope, dinosaurs and German falafel-spoons. His work has been shared on TED.com and viewed millions of times worldwide, as well as being translated into over 20 different languages. When there’s not a global pandemic on he performs all over the country and has really really missed live gigs. His latest collection ‘Unashamed’ was published with Burning Eye in 2022 and he has been sharing poems from it at every available opportunity ever since.
