FLO Vortex – Sunday 31st October
FLO Vortex is London’s leading spoken word event. The brainchild of world-renowned poet and multi-platinum recording artist, Natalie ‘Floacist’ Stewart (Floetry) aka Flo, The Vortex first opened in 2014 and has since hosted hundreds of poets, from first-timers to long-timers, from rookies to veterans.
To “enter the Vortex and share your FLO” is a staple as a UK poet and has become a part of the spoken word bucket list for poets worldwide. FLO Vortex has created a community within the spoken word community, where the lovers of performance poetry, both audience and poets alike, come together to experience a spoken word event like no other. Hosted by Flo herself, FLO Vortex is about to open for you! A night of spoken word, not to be missed!
