Tavi Nights

Welcome to Tavi Nights - a space where community, creativity, and personal truth come together.

Tavi Nights is all about artists showing up as themselves and sharing their truth through poetry and music. It's a night that celebrates individuality - where spoken word and music come together, each one highlighting and supporting the other.

This event is rooted in Pollyanna Knight's debut poetry book, TAVI - deeply personal work exploring themes of shame, healing, and acceptance.

The name TAVI was originally inspired by the Tavistock Centre, where Pollyanna attended throughout her youth. Later, she discovered that TAVI also means 'inside you' in Lithuanian - a beautifully fitting meaning that now shapes the soul of this event.

Whether you're a poet, a musician, or someone who simply loves to listen, Tavi Nights invites you into a new creative family. Join us, celebrate what's within, and be part of something honest, heartfelt, and inspiring.
