The Merano Poetry Prize (German: Lyrikpreis Meran) is a literary prize for German language poetry established in 1993[1] and 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 additional prizes are awarded, the Alfred Gruber Prize (€3,500) and the Media Prize of the RAI broadcaster South Tyrol (€2,500).

The Merano literary competition is held every two years.

The Merano Poetry Prize is considered highly prestigious.[2][3] 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")[4].
