Poetry Slam

Word art on Hamburg's stages.

Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

    Art of Impossible — an intimate evening of theatrical magic and self-discovery.

    "Art of Impossible" is an exclusive evening of theatrical magic by Dr. Alex Romanoff, magician and historian.

    Hosted in Hamburg’s Zaubermuseum Bellachini – a private collection curated by Wittus Witt – the show takes you on a journey through the art and history of magic. Blending storytelling, humour, and participation, Dr. Romanoff explores why humans are drawn to the impossible and how our perception of mystery reveals something about ourselves.

    This is not a traditional magic show but an interactive cultural experience where amazement meets reflection. Whether you come with a partner, a friend, or family, it’s a night for adults who enjoy intelligent entertainment and meaningful conversation — an evening that combines curiosity, laughter, and discovery.

    Limited to only 20 guests, each performance creates a rare closeness between artist and audience.

    Ausstellung: KI and me. In künstlicher Beziehung.

    The media literacy initiative klicksafe is calling for participation in Safer Internet Day (#SID26) on February 10th. The theme of SID and a new exhibition in the foyer of the public libraries is the question: Can artificial intelligence replace human relationships?

    AI bots (computer programs) that mimic human actions through automated or repetitive execution seem to promise just that. They explain things, offer advice in problematic situations, and even provide emotional support and assistance.

    But what influence does AI have on our social interactions? What opportunities and risks arise when children and young people, in particular, develop emotional or sexual attachments to an AI?

    The striking symbolism of popular AI applications invites discussion, questioning, and classification.
