StAnza Poetry Festival

• StAnza's mission is to bring to audiences the best of poets, and practitioners in related art forms worldwide. Over the years StAnza has featured a strong list of leading poets based in Scotland as well as Scottish poets from England, Canada and the USA. The organisation has brought a range of major American poets to the festival, commissioned art works from leading Scottish artists, featured both past and present Poet Laureates, and has brought to StAnza poets from over 40 countries.
• StAnza also actively promotes readings in foreign or minority languages and has featured poets reading in many of the national languages of Europe, as well as in regional languages and dialects, not forgetting its regular showcasing of Gaelic and Scots poets.
• Other than readings, the festival features performances, in conversations, an annual lecture, workshops and masterclasses, films and video projections, children’s events, stand-up sessions and a range of exhibitions. Songwriting, drama, comedy and storytelling have all played a part in the festival in recent years. Full lists of all previous festival participants can be seen in the past participants section of the site Archives.
