Reading Beer & Cider Festival
After considering the Government's announcements over the last few days, it is with great regret that we have to announce that we have decided to cancel the Reading & Mid-Berks CAMRA Real Ale and Cider Festival for 2020. This is disappointing for many of us, but is the only responsible course to take in light of the extremely serious situation that we are all facing. We hope that you all remain in good health and we look forward to seeing you all at Reading & Mid-Berks CAMRA Beer and Cider Festival 2021.
