Delhi Poetry Festival: Unleash Your Inner Hero Through the Power of Words!
Greetings From the Founder’s Desk
The Delhi Poetry Festival is back for its 11th year, and we’re more excited than ever to celebrate the power of poetry! Building on the success of last year’s “Poets with Purpose” theme, we’re ready to ignite the poetic flame once again.
This year, our theme is “The Hero Within Us.” We believe that everyday heroism is within reach, inspiring us to stand up for what’s right, take risks for others, and create positive change.
Expect more than just poetry readings! The festival will be a vibrant experience with:
-
- Meaningful dialogues that delve into the impact of poetry on society.
- Captivating performances that will stir your soul, including Sufi music, poetry fusions, and performance poetry.
- Book launches by renowned authors.
- Dedicated discussions focusing on women’s voices.
- The Delhi Poetry Festival Junior: A space for young poets to shine!
Join the Movement!
The Delhi Poetry Festival is not just a two-day event; it’s a movement. We aim to create a democratic and fearless platform for diverse voices to rise through poetry and art. We believe in the power of poetry to transcend political and ideological boundaries, uniting people through a shared love of language.
More Than Just Entertainment
The festival is not just entertainment; it’s a call to action. We aim to celebrate poetry, stimulate thought, and promote a vibrant cultural and literary space. It’s a responsibility to combat the decline of culture and language while recognizing
everyday heroes.
Mark Your Calendars!
Join us on November 23rd & 24th at The India Habitat Centre for the Delhi Poetry Festival, Season 8. We’re partnering with The Jai Hind Project to celebrate “The Hero Within Us” through various exciting initiatives.
We look forward to seeing you there!
