The Merano Poetry Prize (German: Lyrikpreis Meran) is an international literary prize for German-language poetry that was founded by Alfred Gruber in cooperation with the former mayor of Merano, Franz Alber, and the scholar for German studies, Johann Holzner. The biennial competition was established in 1993[1] and is awarded by the South Tyrolean provincial government in the city of Merano. In addition to this award, which is endowed with €8,000, usually two further prizes are awarded, the Alfred Gruber Prize (€3,500) and the Media Prize of the RAI broadcaster South Tyrol (€2,500).[2][3]

The Merano Poetry Prize is considered highly prestigious.[4][5] The Austrian national public broadcaster ORF called it "one of the most important literary competitions in the German-speaking world" ("[einer] der wichtigsten Literaturwettbewerbe seiner Gattung im deutschen Sprachraum")[6].
