The UK summer music scene will reach its climax for Leeds Festival at the end of August. An expected 100,000 festival-lovers will descend on the spectacular Bramham grounds across the bank holiday weekend - from Friday August 26 to Sunday August 28.
While everyone will be keen to fully brief themselves on the line-up and stages, it’s also important to make sure you are aware of all the rules put in place by the organisers. Given the high-profile and vast nature of the event, it’s unsurprising to discover that numerous rules are stipulated to limit the amount of unpleasantness that could occur.
Under the festival’s terms and conditions of entry, several strict rules can be found for visitors to abide by while enjoying the entertainment.
