Readings on the Green
18 poets read in Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, German, Slovenian and Spanish
Three afternoons full of poetry!
Whether it’s a relaxed Saturday afternoon for families on June 6, a Sunday picnic with your loved ones on June 7, or browsing the poetry market on June 13 — on these three dates you can spend your afternoons on the lawn in front of silent green and enjoy 50 readings, discovering both familiar and new voices. Discover fresh texts together – from hidden gems to award-winning poets. In Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, Farsi, German, Latvian, Slovenian, Spanish and Turkish (translations into German are provided).
And the best part: free admission! Headphones, which let you move freely across the entire venue, are available free of charge. Refreshing drinks and snacks can be purchased at the silent green kiosk, and there will once again be deck chairs, blankets and beanbags under sun tents. You're also welcome to bring your own cushions and blankets.
