Kia ora Wellington! Bad Diaries Salon is returning to Wellington for VERB in 2025.

We are thrilled to be back on the Meow stage for Verb on Friday 7 November 2025 – and even thrilled-er to be sharing this double bill event with beloved and brilliant Starling Magazine.

Our Bad Diaries Salon theme for this event is STAR – STAR might be an asterisk, a wild card, a heavenly body, the first half of a STAR-LING. Or STAR might easily describe any and all of our extra-starry Bad Diaries Salon readers: Kate Camp, Jo Randerson, Michelle Duff and Elizabeth Knox, with your host, dear old Bad Diaries Salon mother hen Tracy Farr, clucking like a motherclucker as always.

Join us! Join us! Tickets $15 (or purchase the double-bill ticket for $25 and go to Starling’s birthday party, too, you know you want to) from VERB.

When: 6.00pm–7.00pm Friday 7 November 2025

Where: Meow, 9 Edward St, Wellington (map)

Tickets: Tickets $15 (or purchase the double-bill ticket for $25 and go to Starling’s birthday party, too) from the VERB website at Bad Diaries Salon #STAR

Thanks, as always, to VERB for having us.
