Reading And Leeds Festival To Go Ahead In August

Organisers confirm it will continue...

*Reading and Leeds Festival* will go ahead in August.

This week the government gave further advice on the easing of lockdown, and suggested June 21st as a cut off point for emergency measures.

With that in mind, festivals have begun revising their plans, with live events set to kick back in shortly afterwards. Reading and Leeds skipped 2020 due to pandemic measures, but will return this summer. In a statement, organisers confirmed that the twin-site festival is set to run as planned over the August Bank Holiday weekend. Check out the update below.
