The Cultural Programmes and Heritage Festivals Committee said registration for participation in the 7th edition of the Million’s Poet TV Contest 2015 will continue until the October 31.
The Poetry Academy in Abu Dhabi announced the opening of registration for the 7th season, immediately after the finale in May 2014. The 6th season culminated in crowning the Emirati poet, Saif Salem Al Mansouri, who won the Poetry Bayraq (i.e. Flag) and the title of the Million’s Poet, according to the UAE News Agency (WAM).
Over the previous months, the Academy received a considerable number of applications for participation in the upcoming season. The Million’s Poet is organised every two years alternately with the Prince of Poets competition for eloquent poetry, which concluded its 6th season in May 2015.
Year after year, the Million’s Poet attracted the attention of many poets from various countries. The competition also succeeded in attracting a large audience on account of its close association with Arab heritage and authenticity.
In this context, the organisers remain keen on developing the TV programme while cultivating originality and creativity to provide the viewers with a new experience of excellence and finesse.
Over the years, the TV programme has effectively attracted a large audience and preserved its distinguished position in the eyes of the lovers of Nabati (i.e. vernacular) poetry. With each new edition, millions of eager viewers from the Arab region tune in to follow the exciting competitions, WAM reported.
Is your poetry good enough to win you 1 million US Dollars? Then you must enter the Million's Poet TV competition. (Jamaluk.com)
