The UK’s second biggest music event returns to Richfield Avenue and Bramham Park from August 25-27, promising ticket-holders a pop spectacle with all the bells and whistles. This year’s addition sees The 1975, Foals, Billie Eilish, The Killers, Sam Fender and Imagine Dragons all topping the bill alongside a plethora of lesser-known bands and artists.

The 1975 were a late addition and will be replacing Scottish singer Lewis Capaldi, who is taking a break from all live performances following a bout of mental and physical complications. 

Weather-wise, forecasts suggest a fairly tame weekend, with both Reading and Leeds due a little rain and and accompanying light breeze. Temperatures at Reading are set to peak at 21°, while Leeds is expected to reach 19°.

Ahead of the next week’s event, and with tickets still available, the official Reading and Leeds websites have published the stage times for each act. Check out the full programme across both festivals below.
