Events held will be in support of Action for Children, a charity close to Martin’s heart.From spoken word artist Poejazzi appearing in St George’s Courtyard and a vintage market which will transform Forbury Hill into ‘Vintage Hill’, to Man Like Me’s midnight set at the Oakford Social Club, Hogarth Productions’ street theatre and the cinematic and electronic takeover of the Pentahotel – the timings and locations are ready... but do be prepared for some last minute extras that will spring up to surprise you!9th July will see the start of month long Saturday takeovers of the town centre’s leafy Forbury Gardens, St Laurence Church, Market Place, bars and venues along the buzzing Friar Street, St Georges Courtyard and the luxury Pentahotel, plus so many more surprise events and entertainments for all.The official outside:inside Festival Merch Store opened last weekend, to warm up the locals with the array of forthcoming events, and will remain there throughout July.
