We’re very pleased to confirm we’ll once again be taking part in Independent Venue Week in 2019.

Independent Venue Week (IVW) is a 7-day celebration of small music venues around the country and a nod to the people that own, run and work in them, week in, week out. Supported using public funding by Arts Council England in the UK and also the wider music industry and brands globally, Independent Venue Week brings together these venues along with breaking and established artists, promoters, labels, media, bloggers and tastemakers to create a nationwide series of gigs.

IVW runs from Mon 28th Jan – Sun 3rd Feb 2019. We’re very proud to be the only Reading venue to be part of the event, with a trio of gigs put together by Club Velocity:

Friday Feb 1st

Saturday Feb 2nd

Sunday Feb 3rd

Tickets for all three events are already on sale, and if they’re anything like previous years they promise to be stand-out gigs for the year. See you there?
