Pay What You Decide

Join us to celebrate National Poetry Day and Black History Month as our regular poetry night returns for the first time since February 2020! Headlined by founder of The Sunday Practise and 2021 Apprentice Poet in Residence at Ilkley Literature Festival, Rheima Robinson, this will be an evening packed with scorching spoken word and playful poetry. Rheima will be joined by Leeds based poet Taiwo Ogunyinka. There will be a limited number of 5 minute open mic slots available. Email a.corwin@kalasangam.org to put you name down and readers will be picked on the night. In partnership with Spoke and Ilkley Literature Festival.

All our events are Pay What You Decide, which means you don’t have to pay until after you have seen the event. We want to encourage more people to come and see events at Kala Sangam, more often.

Pay What You Decide not only allows you to pay what you can afford, rather than a fixed ticket price, but also removes the financial risk of buying a ticket for an event in advance without knowing whether you are going to enjoy it or not.

Tickets are available to book in advance as usual, but there is no obligation for you to pay until after you have seen the event. You can then decide on a price which you think is suitable based on your experience, which means if you haven’t enjoyed it at all, you don’t have to pay anything.

Please ensure you have arrived and collected your tickets 15 minutes before the event starts in order to secure your seats. At the end of the show, you can decide what to pay, either by cash or card on the door.

If you have ANY coronavirus symptoms, please DO NOT attend.

This event will take place following any social distancing requirements in place at the time.

Temperature checks, hand sanitisation and mask wearing will be used  and encouraged where appropriate.
