Transpoesie 2026 – Where Voices Meet brings together poets from across Europe and beyond whose work is shaped by place, language, memory, and movement. In this edition, poetry emerges from borderlands, islands, rural regions, diasporic lives, and multilingual realities—then travels onward through translation, not as an afterthought, but as a creative act in its own right.
Here, translation is not simply a bridge between fixed meanings. It is a practice of listening, revoicing, and transformation. Poems carry the textures of local histories, endangered tongues, accents, silences, and distances; they arrive bearing the marks of where they come from. Where Voices Meet invites audiences into a poetic space where languages do not dissolve into one another, but resonate side by side—distinct, restless, and alive.
