SOKA FEST
Reading Town Centre Takeover
10th October • 12PM – 11PM

SOKA Fest is a brand new multi-genre music festival taking over Reading town centre across multiple venues for one unforgettable day of live music, community and creativity.

Across 8 venues throughout the town centre, expect:
🎶 Live bands
🎧 DJs
🎤 Acoustic acts
🔥 Alternative music
