Austin Poetry Slam Presents: The Open Mic and Haiku Deathmatch

Poetry lovers, assemble. On Wednesday October 8, 2025 at the Alamo Drafthouse Mueller inside the Barrel O’Fun at 1911 Aldrich St. Austin TX 78723, the stage becomes a battlefield of words. Hosted by the quick-witted and sharp-tongued Mr. Dave.

🚪 Doors open at 7PM
🅿️ Garage parking validated
🍔 Full bar and full Alamo menu

Here’s how it goes:
Open Mic – Sign up at the door, share your soul, break our hearts, or make us laugh till it hurts.
Haiku Deathmatch – Purchase tickets online and step into the arena where every syllable matters. Five. Seven. Five. Each round, poets clash in razor-sharp seventeen-syllable strikes until one champion remains.

The haiku is short but deadly. The Open Mic is wild and unpredictable. Together, it’s an unforgettable night of artistry, comedy, and a little friendly carnage.

Bring your friends, bring your best lines, and maybe bring a calculator.
