Reading Dusseldorf – 75 years of friendship photo contest

#b4friendship

4 themes, 2 towns, 1 competition

To celebrate 75 years of the twinning link with our twin town in Germany we are excited to announce an extra special online photo competition with entries from both Reading and Dusseldorf.

We are asking entrants to submit photos showing the 4 Bs of Reading in an imaginative way as possible. The prize will be a weekend trip to Dusseldorf for two! 

The four themes are Beer, Biscuits, Bulbs and Bricks – we can’t wait to see what ideas you come up with!

What’s it all about?

Reading is famous for its four “Bs”: Beer, Biscuits, Bulbs and Bricks. And we thought it would be great to see photos of the 4 Bs in both Reading and Düsseldorf.

How to participate?

Participants are invited to post their creative photo of the “4 Bs” from Reading under the hashtag #b4friendship using Instagram, Facebook or Twitter.   If you do not have a public profile, you can alternatively send your photo by e-mail to communications@reading.gov.uk. The deadline for applications is Friday 24 June 2022.
