The Royal Festival Hall is once again the venue for one of the biggest poetry events of the year.
Inaugurated in 1993, the TS Eliot Prize is among the world’s most celebrated poetry awards. Past winners include internationally renowned poets with established reputations, as well as newly emerging writers helping to reshape the art form.
Centered around stirring readings of poems from a shortlist of ten outstanding new poetry collections, this year’s event is hosted by the superlative poet and broadcaster Ian McMillan.
