The Reading Fringe Festival is coming!
By Damien on Tue 27 Jun
We’ve got a weekend packed with acts as part of this year’s Fringe, all equally unique.
Yes, it’s that time of year again – the ever-growing Reading Fringe Festival is coming very soon. Between the 19th and 23rd of July Reading will be turned into a hub of theatrical entertainment, in a variety of thrilling venues with something for everyone to enjoy. And we’ll be taking part again this year, with a smorgasbord of events on Friday 21st, Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd, featuring faces old and new to the centre.
