About Reading & Leeds
Reading & Leeds is a British institution — the defining festival experience for generations of UK music fans. Two sites, one lineup, held simultaneously over the August bank holiday. The programming spans rock, alternative, hip-hop, and electronic across multiple stages. The crowd energy is famously intense, and the Sunday night headliner is a communal moment for 90,000+ people. The 2026 edition features Charli XCX, Fontaines DC, and Raye as headliners.
