BB2025 Entries are Open
The sun shone in Walhalla
as Sean Duffy received his Billy
in the historic gold mining town
that inspired his winning poem.
BB2025 Entry Pack now available.
Thank you for your interest in one of the premier competitions for writers of Australian bush poetry. The 35th Annual Blackened Billy Verse Competition is being held to inspire and encourage modern creations of rhymed and metered verse. May all entrants enjoy rising to the challenge of this keenly contested iconic competition. We look forward to awarding the top 13 poems in early 2025. Entries close 30 November 2024. You need to be in it to win it. Will you joyfully grin like Sean when you get YOUR hands and name and poem on the 35th Annual Billy? Good luck to all entrants and thank you for supporting the Blackened Billy Verse Competition.
