Leisure and Culture

There's a whole range of cultural and leisure activities available in the Reading area. Reading hosts many cultural and music festivals including the major international festival, Reading Festival, along with Reading's own Children's Festival.

This section contains information on some of these pursuits such as fishing and walking and has links to Reading Arts, Libraries, Sports venues and Museum websites. You can also find information here on the history of Reading and how to apply for the Council's Your Reading Passport scheme which means residents can claim discount on council-run leisure facilities and events.
