Join us for an evening of connection, conversation, and creativity at the Bournemouth Author Meet-Up.
This informal gathering is being held on Friday 17th October 2025, the evening before the Romance Writing Festival. It’s a chance for festival attendees who are travelling down early to meet fellow authors in a relaxed setting before the weekend begins.
While the timing is designed with Romance Writing Festival delegates in mind, all authors are warmly welcome — whether you write romance, crime, fantasy, non-fiction, or anything in between. If you’re local to Bournemouth (or just passing through), this is a wonderful opportunity to network, share ideas, and enjoy a friendly night out with like-minded writers.
You are also welcome to join us beforehand at the bar of the Royal Bath Hotel at 6pm for pre-dinner drinks.
Event Details:📅 Date: Friday 17th October 2025🕖 Time: 7:00 – 9:30pm📍 Venue: Cosy Club, Bournemouth
Whether you’re attending the festival or simply looking to connect with other authors, come along for an evening of good company and great conversations.
Menu: For a party of this size, we would need to order from Cosy Club's party menu, please find a sample of this menu here
This includes a Sharing Small Plate Starter and a Main for £26.50, and you can add a pudding for £6.50.
With this menu, we do not require a pre order for your food.
Booking Info: There is a £2 non-refundable booking fee to reserve your spot. This helps us cover admin and protect against no-show charges from the venue. Thank you for supporting local, low-cost creative events like this one!
Why book? Space is limited in the venue during evenings, so booking helps us make sure there’s enough room for everyone – and lets us keep running these events sustainably.
We look forward to seeing you!
