Reading Climbing Festival 2017 Press Release

© Climbing Centre Group

We're pleased to announce the first Reading Climbing Festival, running over the weekend of the 11th and 12th of March.

The festival combines the final events of both our Winter Bouldering League and new Elevate climbing competition.

Athletes Jim Pope and Ben Bransby will be on hand representing the competition sponsors La Sportiva and DMM. There will be a host of great prizes not only for the overall winners, but on-the-spot events throughout the weekend so it's going to be a great weekend whether you have taken part in the competitions so far, or are coming along for the first time.

Pete Whittaker will be joining the festivities on Saturday, giving a great lecture on his solo climb of El Capitan, Yosemite.

Sunday evening's entertainment is a selection of climbing films from our sponsors DMM and La Sportiva; a great chilled end to a busy few days.

We hope you can join us, we look forward to welcoming you!!!

A bit cheeky ripping off the Reading 'music' Festival poster for your own use, and quite possibly legally a bit dodgy for UKC to be publishing it? http://www.readingfestival.com/line-up/poster

Has Reading Festival copyrighted the colour yellow or something?

From your profile, I see that you're from Reading, you will no doubt be very familiar with the Reading Festival branding, logos, posters, merchandise etc. The similarities are very clear and obviously more than just a coincidence! Whoever designed the Reading 'Climbing' Festival poster, will also be aware of the similarities which were no doubt intentional, I was merely pointing out that it was cheeky and legally questionable.
