Reading & Leeds 2026: Charli XCX, Fontaines DC, Raye, Florence + The Machine lead a loaded bill

Twin UK festivals Reading and Leeds return August 27–30, 2026, with mostly matching lineups—though artists will play on different days at each site. This year’s headliners include Charli XCX, Dave, Florence + The Machine, Fontaines D.C., Chase & Status Live, and Raye, alongside sets from Kneecap, Geese, Skepta, Sombr, Role Model, and more. Leeds will also feature Kasabian on Thursday night, a slot not currently listed on Reading’s poster.

Tickets are available via presale now, with general on-sale beginning Wednesday, December 3 at 12 PM UK time.
