Whatever the purpose of your visit, we’ve broken down five great activities in and around Reading for you to enjoy this Autumn:

Winner of the Best Food Market in the Great British Market Awards 2020, this is held on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month. As anyone local to the area will tell you, it's a great opportunity to explore and purchase fresh food and drink directly from local producers. 
There’s a range of produce available from a variety of Reading-based farmers, ranging from organic fruit & veg to high welfare meat, fish, eggs & dairy products–there’s even natural skincare available!


This is the perfect way to spend an easy Saturday morning in Reading, and a great way to stock up your fridge in your Celador Apartment for the upcoming week!

With London just a short train ride away, a festive way to spend an evening this Autumn season could be a Ghost Walk or Haunted Tour!
There are countless different experiences available, varying from tours of different haunted sites to the routes of history’s most dreaded killers–but don’t worry, there are many experiences which are also tailored to families with young children for some lighter Halloween fun.


No matter which you choose, a spooky trip to London could be a great way to break up your stay in Reading this Autumn.

If you’re a football fan who also loves a little bit of chaos, this is definitely something to look forward to in Reading.
The game is simple: five-a-side with each player strapped into a giant inflatable bubble (and barging isn’t frowned upon.) This is a great way to spend an hour laughing and playing with your group of up to 15, with players being regularly rotated to ensure that everyone enjoys the fun and a referee there to keep things running smoothly.
If you’re looking for a funny bonding activity in the Reading area this Autumn, this is definitely one we’d recommend!

Saturday 3rd and Saturday 17th September
This is a stunning way to wind down after a busy Saturday in Reading, where you’ll receive a complimentary glass of Pimms on arrival.
Taking place from 6-8pm and departing from Caversham Pier, this is a relaxing way to watch the buzz on the river wind down–all whilst catching up with friends, family or coworkers as the sun goes down.
The event is adults only, so would be an ideal Autumn activity for couples or anyone in need of a little bit of relaxation.
