Best of Poetry Slam – Wortkonzert in der Gigelberghalle

On Saturday, February 21, 2026, the Gigelberghalle in Biberach will transform into a temple of linguistic art:
The Kreissparkasse Biberach presents together with the KultuReservoir the “Wortkonzert – Best of Poetry Slam” – an evening full of linguistic power, humor, depth, and goosebumps.

But what is Poetry Slam actually?
A modern poetry competition where words become performance.
The rules: original texts, time limit, no props.
The special feature: The audience decides with scoring boards and applause who the winner of the evening is.

“We can look forward to the finest poetry art in one of the most beautiful locations in our city,” enthuses Tobias Meinhold (KultuReservoir Biberach), who will lead the evening together with Biberach's Poetry Slam pioneer Tobias Heyel (“großraumdichten”). Since 2013, the Kreissparkasse Biberach and the KultuReservoir have been collaborating to offer innovative cultural formats to the region – 2026 with a very special highlight.

The Line-Up: Four stars of the German-speaking stage scene

Mia Ackermann
For over half a decade, the Bernese poet has been celebrated on slam stages throughout the German-speaking area. Twice Swiss U20 vice-champion, 2024 German-speaking team vice-champion, and co-founder of the feminist reading stage Kollektiv kitzeln. Her texts are an explosive mix of poetry, prose, rap parts, fine humor, and social stance – precise, feminist, irresistible.

Pauline Füg
The award-winning writer, psychologist, and long-time slam poet (including Bavarian Culture Prize, Nuremberg Culture Prize) has been performing on stages across Europe for over 20 years. As part of the legendary spoken-word duo großraumdichten, she combines poetry, performance, and video art. Additionally, she developed “demenzPoesie,” a unique therapy concept – poetry that works!

Friedrich Herrmann
German-speaking Poetry Slam champion of 2019, now one of the most exciting stand-up comedians in the country. At Nightwash, in the Quatsch Comedy Club, and on the big stages, he regularly brings tears of laughter with his solo program “killin it softly.” Linguistically precise, sharply observed – and always surprising.

Julius Keinath
Thuringian Slam state champion, DM finalist, and touring for over ten years through all federal states. His texts range from fine satire to delicate poetry – always linguistically clever, always with a stance. Workshops, moderation, stage program: Julius lives performance. Pew Pew. The audience loves it.

The audience evaluates – the best text wins.

Experience powerful ideas, humor attacks, goosebump poetry, and an evening that inspires, surprises, and excites.
