These proceedings contain the contributed papers for the Sixth International Workshop on Narrative Extraction from Texts (Text2Story2023 1 ) held in conjunction with the ECIR 2023 conference in Dublin, Ireland, on the 2nd of April 2023. Thirty two papers were submitted for peer-review to this workshop. Out of these, nineteen papers were accepted for this volume, nine as regular papers, and ten in the category of Work in Progress, Demos and Dissemination. Each submitted paper was reviewed by three members of an international programme committee. In addition to the selected papers, the workshop features two invited speakers: Georgiana Ifrim and Valentina Bartalesi. Georgiana Ifrim gave a talk entitled "Structured Summarisation of News at Scale". Valentina Bartalesi gave a talk entitled "Creating and Visualising Semantic Story Maps".
