Family-friendly outdoor festival with dancing, a funfair, kids' rides, stalls, street food and a special-effects show in a big-top tent.
Raver Tots are bringing their family festival to Prospect Park on Sunday 18 July, from 13:00 to 17:00. It's part of their South East series, and the whole thing is built around kids and parents dancing together to some of the country's biggest DJs across huge dance spaces. They describe themselves as the UK's biggest award-winning rave for families, and the Reading date is one of several they're running across the region.
Beyond the music, there's a fairground feel to it. You'll find a funfair with kids' rides, stalls, and giant inflatables, alongside arts and crafts, face painting, and glitter art. There's a wide street food selection to pick from and a fully licensed bar for the adults. The centrepiece is a state-of-the-art production and special-effects show housed in a huge big-top tent with club-style lighting, so the dancefloor is the main event.
It's open to all ages from zero upwards, and the crowd can range from 300 to 10,000 people at a time. The organisation also runs a charitable programme that donates thousands of pounds a year to children's charities. They've picked up more than 20 million video views and have been featured on the BBC, ITV, MTV and LadBible.
