And the Planet Reigate podcast is proud media partners with the Reigate Summer Festival, which is next weekend. Yeah, let's hear more now about their plans for that free music and arts event, which is taking over the town on Father's Day weekend. I've been along to meet up with one of the people behind it, Karen, and I met up with her in the town centre for the Planet Reigate podcast.
And I'm standing just at the entrance, or maybe it's the exit to the tunnel, depending on which way you go. And in a week's time, this is going to be the venue for one of the massive stages for the Reigate Summer Festival. And Karen is with me. You're one of the organisers, and you're also from Reigate College, where you do an awful lot of marketing. So this is your bag, isn't it?
The marketing, the publicity for the festival. Yeah.
Okay, so we've come round to the... He didn't... It's a nice quiet afternoon here in Reigate. We've just come round the corner so we're outside Gales and we're coming down to that little area which is beside Cafe Nero by the old town hall, the kind of cobbled area here. I'm not sure they are cobbled actually, I think they're probably sets. However, you're going to have another stage here.
Well, let's make our way further up the High Street to one of the other many venues, because it's not just those two. You've got other venues kind of dotted up and down the High Street, up to Lesbourne Road, haven't you, and the other end of the High Street as well?
You've got lots of businesses involved, either they're hosting or they're supporting you in other ways with a bit of advertising or marketing, that kind of thing. The whole town seems to be getting behind this.
People will wander around, they'll go to the different stages, go to the different venues, hop in somewhere for a coffee or something a bit more substantial to eat, do some more shopping at some of our fantastic independent shops as well.
They've got that great space out the back, haven't they?
Where shall we go? Shall we go towards the pilgrims? Shall we go back to the cage? Which way shall we go?
Let's look towards pilgrims. It's the other side of the lights. But what's happening up there?
So it's not just music and dance, but there's a few other things too.
And Dish is getting involved with some pottery work and there's also, as we're walking in this direction, Waterstones getting involved and the cinema too.
They do a lot of live music here anyway, don't they? One of my mates plays here very often.
Lots of businesses supporting the Reigate Summer Festival, but also you're from Reigate College. Some of your students as well getting involved.
And what about the marketing opportunities and helping out and some of the audio production and things like that? Are they getting involved too?
Which is fantastic. Another example of people in and around the town getting involved in all different ways, shapes and forms. So finally, tell me when it's all happening and where people can get more information.
And the Planet Reigate podcasts are proud media partners with the Reigate Summer Festival, which is happening next weekend, as you know. And when you're in town and you're watching all of those different events and you're going in, not just music, of course, it's dance, it's pottery, it's film, it's book, it's all sorts of things going on.
Make sure that you support some of the local independent traders and some of the chains as well there in Reigate. So you can get something to eat or something to drink, maybe buy something, something for summer holidays, a new outfit, whatever it happens to be. Take advantage of being in town.
Now, Red Hill, you don't miss out either, because even though you can't, by sheer definition, have a Reigate Summer Festival in Red Hill, because that would just be confusing, you've got your own arts festival, which is happening, called Be Creative, between the 5th and the 12th of October. So... Red Hill, yours is even bigger. And it's coming a little bit later on in the year as well.
And we're going to be involved with that. And I'll bring you all sorts of information about what is happening with that arts festival a little bit later on as we approach the autumn. Oh, dear, oh, dear. We're not even really into summer yet. Just looking out the window of the Planet Reigate podcast studio. Got some blue sky up there, actually.
