Ideas for Weekday Evenings in Reading?
Hello! I’ve been living in Reading for a bit now (28M), but since I recently hurt my knee and need to take a break from sports, I’m on the lookout for activities during the week that don’t require much walking. I’m only occupied on Monday nights. I would really appreciate any recommendations! 😊
Hi there! Sorry to hear about your knee injury. Here are some suggestions for things you can do in Reading on weekday evenings that don’t require much leg movement:
Visit Museums or Galleries: The Reading Museum has a range of exhibitions. Check if there are any evening events or late openings.
Catch a Movie: Head to one of the local cinemas like Vue or Odeon and enjoy a film.
Relax at a Café or Pub: There are some great cafés and pubs in Reading where you can enjoy a good drink, grab some food, and maybe catch some live music or quiz nights.
Book Clubs or Readings: Check out local bookstores or libraries for any book clubs or readings happening in the evenings.
Board Game Cafés: Places like Board Game Café or similar spots let you enjoy games seated comfortably, and it can be a great way to meet new people.
Arts and Crafts: Look for art workshops or classes that might be offered in the evenings. Pottery or painting classes can be a relaxing way to spend the time.
Online Classes or Webinars: Consider exploring your interests from home through virtual classes, covering anything from cooking to art.
Visit the Oracle: The Oracle shopping centre has various restaurants and shops. It’s a nice place to walk around if you’re up for a gentle stroll.
Escape Rooms: Sometimes they have sit-down experiences or puzzle-solving nights if you want a bit of a challenge without too much physical strain.
Live Music or Open Mic Nights: Keep an eye on local event listings for live performances; they often offer a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy without needing to move around much.
I hope you find these suggestions helpful and that you can enjoy your evenings in Reading despite the injury! Take care!
