Readipop Festival announce one-day Readipop Fiesta event this September
Organisers of Readipop Festival, the three-day annual event in Caversham that is taking a fallow year in 2025, have announced a one-day, 2,500 capacity fundraising event on Saturday 13th September. Readipop Fiesta 2025 will take place across five stages over 14 hours at Reading University Student’s Union on Whiteknights Campus of University of Reading. All profits for the event will go towards the work of the Readipop music charity in the local area and to help build a sustainable future for Readipop Festival.
Between midday and 2am on Saturday 13th September, Readipop Fiesta will be bringing a diverse range of world class live acts and DJs alongside the best local talent, family activities, music and arts workshops, local real ales & craft beers, street food, Reading’s Indie Market, a mini record fair and more to Reading University Student’s Union.
Earlybird tickets will be available from 10am on Monday 14th April exclusively to everyone who signs up for Readipop Festival pre-sale tickets at https://tinyurl.com/readipopsignup. Any remaining earlybird tickets will go on public sale from 10am on Tuesday 15th April. First line-up announcement will be made after our earlybird tickets are sold out.
“We’ve been looking forward to announcing this for a long time” says Readipop Festival founder Gavin Lombos. “We’re immensely proud of what Readipop Festival has become since it launched in 2016 and the large, diverse section of the local community that it has brought together annually since then.’
“However, the costs of building a festival site from scratch and running a three-day event has increased hugely in the last few years and seriously threatened our ability to continue Readipop Festival. By hosting our Readipop Fiesta event on one day this September at Reading University Students Union, we can continue to bring a strong line-up of musical talent to Reading whilst showcasing great local performers and giving attendees the chance to try different instruments, including classic drum machines and synthesisers, for themselves in our daytime workshops.”
“As a thank you to all our previous Readipop Festival attendees and supporters we have a limited number of earlybird tickets available before we announce the first line-up. We are very excited to announce who we have playing the event and will be doing this once the earlybird tickets are sold out.”
