The final of the “Poet Tournament” from “MK” will be held on Saturday

The battle of the poets is in full swing

The acceptance of poetic works for the Tournament of Poets from Moskovsky Komsomolets is coming to an end. But the best, without a doubt, is ahead, namely, the final of our literary competition, which will be held on September 2 at 16.00 in the “Books” zone of the main tent of the Moscow Media Press Festival.

In total, more than seventy applications have already been received for the competition, but we will complete the acceptance on August 31. The authors of the best poems will reach the final and on the upcoming Saturday will be able to demonstrate their poetic gift to the capital and the whole country, as well as to meet face to face with rivals.

The jury promises to be stellar – the artistic director of the theater “At the Nikitsky Gates” Mark Rozovsky and the famous actor and writer Sergei Taratuta agreed to become the judges of the tournament. But to whom to award the victory, our guests will not decide alone – they will be helped by the audience, whom we invite to our enchanting event.

We prepared seriously and professionally for the final, but this doesn’t stop the competition from being popular: you don’t have to be the new Pasternak or Yevtushenko at all. You definitely don’t need to be afraid of strict judging – the main thing for us is that the lines are written from the heart and correspond to the theme. Recall that the poems of the winners will be published in our newspaper, on the site mk.ru, and their authors will be awarded valuable prizes and diplomas.
