Reading and Leeds Festival 2026 Listado verificado

Every summer, music lovers across the UK look forward to the August bank holiday weekend for one reason: Reading and Leeds Festival. Though technically two separate festivals, they’ve become known as “twin festivals” thanks to their shared line-up and simultaneous schedules. Reading takes place in the south (Richfield Avenue, Reading, RG1 8EQ), Leeds in the north (Bramham Park, Leeds, England, LS23 6ND), giving fans across the country a chance to experience the same incredible weekend of music without making a cross-country trek. Most artists perform at both sites—one on Saturday, the other on Sunday—though now and then there’s a slight variation. It’s a clever setup that brings the same electric energy to two different cities, uniting crowds through the power of live music.

Every year, more than 105,000 music lovers head to Richfield Avenue for Reading Festival, and around 75,000 attend Bramham Park for Leeds Festival — events widely regarded as among the best music festivals in the world. With their incredible atmosphere and stellar line-ups, these festivals continue to attract fans from across the globe, all eager to experience unforgettable performances by some of the finest musicians of our time.

The festival is not only about music. Alongside the thrilling social games, you can also find pop-up bars which cater to all different tastes from cider to cocktails, and food stalls which give both hot and cold food that can cater to any taste and hunger --- all these along with everlasting entertainment. The main stages are not the only place where people are absorbed in the music. After the main stage close, a silent disco is on which enables the party to be continued till late at night.

Two places at a time, both in Reading and Leeds, the event runs with a zest of its own, offering people an unmatched atmosphere and a chance to listen to, as well as see, their favorite live acts, thus the traditional summer music calendar is guaranteed a unique and incomparable presence.

The 2025 Reading Festival, which took place from the 21st to the 24th of August, was indeed a weekend to remember for the fans. They had a blast with a dynamic mix of rock, dance, indie, and rap, where the headliners Chappell Roan, Hozier, Bring Me the Horizon, and Travis Scott had show-stopping performances.
