Poetry For All

The Gloucester Poetry Festival is a not for profit organisation established on 17th October 2016 by the Gloucester poet Z D Dicks. Events are held in the City of Gloucester and surrounding towns and is a nationally recognised festival featuring leading international poets and local talent.


The aim is to provide a stage, a platform, that everyone can get behind. Something ostentatious and different. Something that will show the world how prolific Gloucester is for creative writing and performance.


Any money raised is only used for the disbursement of performing poets’ expenses and for chartable purposes.
