THE SUMMERTIME might be the time when the weather is high, and you can stretch right up and touch the sky, but it’s also time to have a drink. And that’s what organisers a gin and rum festival are hoping you’ll do.

The event is coming to the University of Reading’s Great Hall on Sunday, July 29, and will feature more than 120 gins, rums and tequilas from all over the world.

Everyone attending will be able to enjoy a free snack from LOVE CORN, while mixers will come from sponsors Schweppes.

“We’re delighted to be teaming up with LOVE CORN,” says a festival spokesperson.

“They’re an exciting company that shares our passion for quality and taste. We’re thrilled to have them on board, and we’re excited to see what they have in store for us.”

As well as the free snack, the festival is giving new customers a free drink.

“We understand that things are more expensive these days, and we don’t want that to impact our customers’ experience,” the spokesperson said. “

We want to keep doing what we love for years to come, and we know that our customers will look after us if we look after them.

“That’s why we’ve decided to include a free drink with the ticket price for 2023.”
