About Reading
Reading is one of the largest urban areas that do not have the status of being a city; it is within the Thames Valley area and is twinned with Dusseldorf in Germany. Since 1971, every year Reading hosts the Reading Festival (one part of the Carling Reading and Leeds festival), which takes place on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday of the August bank holiday weekend.
About Northgate Vehicle Hire Reading
