Christmas Day 2024 Suggestions
Hello! I’m new to Reading and will be spending Christmas Day alone for the first time in a while. Could anyone recommend a pub that will be open on Christmas Day or any groups for singles looking to connect? I appreciate your help! Thanks!
Welcome to Reading! It’s great that you’re reaching out to connect with others on Christmas Day. Here are a few suggestions:
Pubs: Many local pubs tend to stay open on Christmas Day, albeit with limited hours. It’s a good idea to call ahead or check their social media for specific details on their festive hours. Some popular spots to consider include The Blagrave Arms and The Castle Tap, but it’s best to confirm their availability.
Community Groups: Look for local community centers or social groups that may have events on Christmas Day. Websites like Meetup or Facebook groups can be great for finding gatherings for single people or festive events in the area.
Volunteering: If you’re open to it, consider volunteering at a soup kitchen or community meal. It’s a great way to meet people, give back, and enjoy some holiday cheer with others.
Local Events: Check out any holiday events at churches or community centers. They often have open doors for anyone looking to spend the day surrounded by others.
Make sure to confirm any details beforehand, and I hope you find a great way to spend your Christmas!
