🩵 Did you know Coventry and the Irish city of Cork have been officially twinned since 1958?

And this Thursday, that 68-year friendship is being celebrated with a special poetry evening in Coventry city centre!

Two poets from Cork are travelling to Coventry as part of an international exchange that has been running for 18 years.

Seamus Harrington and Brendan Duffin will perform at Fire&Dust, Coventry's regular spoken-word and poetry night.

The event will also feature an open mic, giving local poets and writers the opportunity to share their own work.

Earlier this year, two Coventry poets, Dangermouse # and Maxi Di Poet, travelled to Cork to perform at events in Ireland.

Now Coventry is returning the welcome.

The exchange was established in 2008 to encourage friendship, cultural understanding and creative connections between the two cities.

And you don't need to be a poet to attend!

Anyone who enjoys live performances, storytelling or simply discovering something different is welcome.

🎤 Fire&Dust: Coventry-Cork Poetry Exchange

📅 Thursday 5 November 2026

⏰ Doors at 7.30pm, performances from 8pm.

📍 Priory Visitor Centre, 6 Priory Row, Coventry, CV1 5EX

🎟️ Free entry, with optional donations.

Open-mic slots are available, although spaces are limited.

🩵 Coventry has a brilliant independent creative community, and events like this deserve more recognition.
