Burlington Lyrics & Poetry Festival

Burlington Lyrics & Poetry Festival decorative banner

Whether sung or slammed, written or recited, poetry declares who we are, how we feel, and what we think, dream, and aspire to be. So, immerse yourself in the power of words at the 4th annual Burlington Lyrics & Poetry Festival! 

Poetry is everywhere in April! We invite you to join us during National Poetry Month, as we salute poems and poets, songs and songwriters with an exciting schedule of performances, workshops, and activities for all ages. 

All Festival events are FREE and most require advance registration. Everyone is welcome! A Burlington Public Library membership is not needed to attend events.
