The return of a highly popular event will bring much cheer to many people in Reading, Berkshire.

Reading Buses announced the good news that their annual open day, also know as the family fun day will return this summer on Sunday, June 26. The normally, well supported open day has not happened for the last two years due to covid-19.

Reading Buses chief executive officer, Robert Williams, said: “Sunday June 26 is most certainly a date for many people’s diary. “There will be much joy and relief that the open day will, at last, have beaten the pandemic which has forced its cancellation for the last two years.

“We can promise that the 2022 open day will be bigger and better than ever - something that many people, including families, can look forward to with enthusiasm.

“Traditionally, the Reading Buses open day is a great day out for everyone and we are encouraging people to tell their families and friends that it is back on.

“The day will feature all the main attractions such as behind the scenes tours, rides through the bus wash and fantastic food and drink - including the popular barbecue. It is free to attend and this of course will once again be a big attraction.

“The event is staffed exclusively by volunteers and all the profits from the day go to our charity of the year - who will be announced shortly.”
