In order for Summer Love to go ahead, a licensing application has to be approved by Reading Borough Council.
The organisers have applied for a licence for live music, recorded music, performances and dance and the sale of alcohol from 12pm to 10pm on Saturday, July 23.
The alcohol licence has been submitted so that rum punch, as well as a beer, cider and ale village and prosecco, gin and cocktails can be sold at the event.
The licence application has been submitted by the company Tots Events Ltd, which also runs the Raver Tots festival which will be occuring at Prospect Park the following day, on Sunday, July 24.
Tots Events has permission to run Raver Tots from 11.30am to 7pm that day.
Raver Tots involves parents taking their toddlers to a ‘rave’ complete with leading dance music artists, a funfair, fancy dress and glow sticks.
Headline acts include Artful Dodger, Eksman, DJ Archie (the world’s youngest DJ) and radio extraordinaires Wideboys, who run the popular Kisstory show.
