Pagoda, Café and Gift Shop
On the 1st floor
The Pagoda will be open for New Year’s Eve from
10pm to midnight during a live broadcast on WEEU Radio
[WEEU Live broadcast is sponsored by WEEU Radio and Adams & Associates]. We are asking everyone to bring along their flashlights to shine on the Pagoda that evening – they’ll also need them to see – since the lights will still be out…then as the time draws near a countdown will occur. At the proper time everyone will be asked to turn off their flashlights and the new Pagoda lights will come on – the Pagoda bell will ring and the fireworks will start!... and the Centennial Celebration is part of history! A few hundred party noisemakers will also be handed out to the crowd
The Pagoda will be closed for January and February for the restoration work. A reopening date has not been determined
If you are interested in renting the Pagoda for an event in 2009, please call 610-655-2584. Thank you.
The official Pagoda centennial book is here!
“The Pagoda Centennial Tales…the lore and lure of Reading’s iconic landmark” is available for $20 at the Mayor’s Office in City Hall [2nd floor]. All proceeds of the book go to the Pagoda Foundation. This almost 200-page book features the history of the Pagoda, over 100 stories and tales about the Pagoda and a section dedicated to the Centennial Celebration year. It has numerous color photos and postcards. We’re sure everyone will enjoy this book!
