Leeds Lit Fest presents

Voted the best poetry night in the UK by the Times, Bang Said The Gun has made poetry cool again.

Headline Mike Garry has just been confirmed

A rollercoaster of emotions, it’s loud, raucous, political, trivial, serious and very funny. Normal rules do not apply here. Featuring a rich mix of the best and freshest talent, they will grab you by the collar and drag you into another world.

Recommended by Kate Tempest and as ex Poet Laureate, Andrew Motion puts it ‘BSTG is a vortex of energy and enthusiasm’.

 ‘Like all the best things in life, Bang Said The Gun is done with commitment, belief and passion.’ Phil Jupitus.
