Down at the Abbey is an independent music festival held in September in the stunning Reading Abbey Ruins. From the creators of the award-winning Are You Listening? Festival.

Due to Covid-19, the festival was unable to take place this year so we present a virtual experience which combines live music performances with some historical insight into Reading Abbey and the waterways that feed it.
