Award-winning poet Andrew McMillan is the judge for the Judge Prize for poems of 11 to 50 lines and he will be reading all entries there are no sifters.
The Editors Prize is judged by a panel of five Magma Editors and is for poems of up to 10 lines. The prize money for both competitions is the same, so double your chances and try your luck at both.
First prize for the Judge and EditorsPrize is £1000, second prize £300 and third prize £150. The six prize-winning poems will be published in Magma and there will also be five special mentions for the Judges Prize and for the Editors Prize. Winning and commended poets will be invited to read their poems at a Magma Competition Event in Spring 2019.
