Super Poem Sunday 2025
A Virtual Poetry Slam

$100 First Prize


Sunday Feb 9th 2025 1:00pm!! 

For over 10 years, on Long Island, NY we've had a special Super Bowl Sunday poetry tradition "Super Poem Sunday!" a fantastic live event held at the Walt Whitman Birthplace. 

60-70 poets compete every year, and there are 3 winners. What's more the event is always over in time for the Super Bowl, so the poets who are both sports fans and poetry fans can attend both. 

​The venue was always packed and we always had a ton of fun. The last few years we've been doing it virtually! 

Super Poem Sunday is still virtual for 2024! 

We're going to do the slam virtually this year. We will have a live virtual event at 1:00pm on Super Bowl Sunday! 

​How It Works:

1: If you are interested in competing fill out the form and pay the $10 entry fee.

2: You will get the link to the zoom event on Super Poem Sunday and will recite a poem of 3 minutes or less (including any short intro.) 

3: The poems and performances will be judged by 3 judges and the winners will be chosen.

(If you are not competing, but just want to spectate, viewing is totally free!)
