PrideXtra Stage

IT’S BACK FOR 2025!!!

Applications to perform on our PrideXtra Stage for Reading Pride’s Love Unites Festival 2025 are now open!

Once again we will be opening applications for our four stages: Main, PrideXtra, Pride Dance, and Pride aLive.

This form is to gather information regarding acts who are interested in performing on our PrideXtra stage for Reading Pride 2025, which takes place in King’s Meadow, Reading, Berkshire, UK on Saturday, 30th August 2025.  

Local acts may also be interested in our Pride aLive stage or PrideDance; which have a separate form. You can find details of applying for these stages via our website.

The deadline for applications is 1st Aug 2025. Applications received after this date will not be accepted.

We receive a huge amount of requests, and as a volunteer organisation we are unable to respond to everyone individually.

Please make sure your requested fee is as accurate as possible. Offers may be withdrawn if this information is inaccurate.

We will only hold onto your details for the purpose of contacting you.  Some of your details may be shared with other vendors, e.g. Sign Language Interpreters, Stage Management, but this would only be done once a contract is in place.

Thank you for wanting to be a part of Reading Pride 2025. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Proudly Sponsor PrideXtra

See you on Saturday, 30th August!
