Founded in 1973, THE NUYORICAN POETS’ CAFE has been a home away from home for some of NYC’s hottest poets. But poetry isn’t the only art form that canvases this legendary place. For you music lovers, hip-hop fiends, and who have a love affair with the theatre with visual and video arts, the NuyoRican is the place you’d like to frequent every night of the week. Also, check out this hot spot for your comedy fix.

The Nuyorican Poets’ Café Spoken Word Poetry Slam Nights @ Bowery Poetry Club

Due to the #nuyoricanstruction and the temporary closing of the Nuyorican Poets Cafe’s doors till 2026,  the Nuyo will host their Spoken Word Poetry Slam Mondays @ the famous NYC Bowery Poetry at 7:00 pm. Doors open at 6:30 pm. Slam takes place from 7:00 to 9:00 pm—tickets: $20 in advance/online or at the door. JRose and The Bee alternately host it.

The Bowery Poetry Club is located at 308 Bowery (between E. Houston & Bleecker Streets) in Manhattan, NYC. 

BUY TICKETS IN ADVANCE: https://www.bowerypoetry.com/slam

HOW THE SLAM WORKS?
– Poets have 3 MINUTES to perform one original poem per round (any topic they choose).
– Sign up inside the club (at the stage, after doors open); the list is based on a first-come, first-serve basis.
– Scores range from 0.0 to 10.0 — judges are randomly chosen from the audience.
– No musical accompaniment, no props on stage.
– Two rounds — the top 5 from the first round advance to the second round.
The winner (combined score from both rounds) receives $20 cash and gets an invite to the Nuyorican Poets Café’s new monthly Friday grand slam (details coming soon).
