Help Our Artists Shine at Reading Pride 2025!

Spearheaded by drag queens Grace Anatomy and Miss Charley O'llocks, we're a collective of local performers and artists coming together to create an unforgettable community stage experience at this year's Reading Pride Love Unites festival on August 30th, 2025 at King's Meadow, Reading.

Our Vision

The PrideXtra Stage has always been the beating heart of Reading Pride – a platform where emerging talent, diverse voices, and passionate performers can share their art with thousands of festival-goers. This year, we want to make it bigger, better, and more inclusive than ever before!

What We Need

We're raising funds to cover:

• Marquee rental

• Stage lighting and effects

• Artist fees

Every pound donated helps amplify local voices and ensures that the community stage remains a vibrant celebration of our diverse artistic landscape.

Beyond Cash Donations

While financial contributions are incredibly valuable, we're also looking for:

• Official sponsors (businesses and organisations who will receive recognition across our social media, promotional materials, and, of course, at the event itself)

• Prizes for our pre-festival fundraising events (quiz nights, drag bingo, etc.)

• In-kind donations of equipment or services

If there's any way you think you can support us, please get in touch!

Who We Are

Led by local queens Grace Anatomy and Miss Charley O'llocks, we are the artists and performers who make the PrideXtra Stage special. While this isn't an official Reading Pride fundraiser, we're working closely with the festival organisers to ensure our community stage represents the true spirit of Love Unites.

Join Our Journey

Your support isn't just about funding a stage – it's about creating a platform where stories can be told, talents can be discovered, and our community can come together in celebration.

Let's make the 2025 Community Stage at Reading Pride an unforgettable experience for everyone!
