Synonymous with the UK’s music culture, Reading & Leeds Festival is the stage for some of the most iconic moments in global music over the past decade. Stormzy’s electrifying 2018 set marked a defining moment for grime, Billie Eilish’s 2019 performance cemented her as a generational icon, and Arctic Monkeys’ triumphant 2022 return captivated fans old and new. Dave’s unforgettable 2019 crowd interaction during ‘Thiago Silva’ showcased the festival’s unique connection between artists and audiences, and when Liam Gallagher teased the Oasis reunion announcement at the end of his set at Reading last summer it made headlines around the world. This combination of supporting artistic evolution and creating moments of cultural significance has solidified Reading & Leeds as more than just a music festival, it’s a vital lifeblood that continues to define and celebrate the global music landscape.

Changing the game for festivals every year, Reading & Leeds took home The Innovation Award at the UK Festival Awards 2024 in recognition for the all new Chevron Stage. Re-inventing the possibilities for an open air venue on this scale with immersive lighting and stage design like never before, The Chevron Stage ushers in a new era for Reading & Leeds.

Reading & Leeds Festival takes place Thursday 21st - Sunday 24th August 2025 at Richfield Avenue in Reading and Bramham Park in Leeds.
