WAAG XMAS SLAM 2025

WAAG Slam turns three! And everyone’s invited to celebrate!
This will be a special Christmas edition featuring some of the most active local slammers of the moment: Adam Dalpiaz, Manuel Hilber, Filomena Hunglinger, Olivia Kaufmann, Andreas Kofler, Silva Manzardo, Irene Moroder, Lena Simonetti, Team “Michi und Ichi” (Michaela Grüner and Frau S.), and Seamus Wimhurst.
All performances will include a little seasonal motto—“First 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, then…”—and the audience will get their cue to cheer “hui!” every time. Each slammer performs their own original texts, live on stage, with no costumes or props—just their voice, their presence, and their words.
We’ll also be joined by a wonderful special guest: musician Maria Craffonara (Vienna/Brunico), with her violin, her kalimba, and her unmistakable voice. The evening will be hosted by Lene Morgenstern.
Admission is free, but please bring a book with you. One you’ve already read. Or one you’d prefer someone else to read. One that meant a lot to you. Or one you still haven’t fully figured out. One that got you through your studies. Or one someone else should probably study…At the end of the night, you’ll get to take home a different book. “Bring a book / Take a book.”
As always, the audience will be the jury, and only one slammer will take the crown. And then it’s party time.
WAAG Slam is a project by SAAV and WAAG, kindly supported by RAETIA.
