The lineup for Reading and Leeds Festival has been confirmed, and fans have slammed it for including the “worst headliners ever.” The long-running British festival returns in 2023 with hundreds of acts performing at its twin sites at Reading’s Richfield Avenue and West Yorkshire’s Bramham Park.
More than 30 acts have so far been confirmed for slots at the festival – taking place over the August bank holiday weekend from August 25 to 27 – with many more to be announced. Continuing its recent tradition of having two main stages at both sites, the festival now boasts double headline acts each night.
Topping the bill this year are Billie Eilish, Imagine Dragons, Sam Fender, Foals, The Killers and Lewis Capaldi. The whopping six headliners are arguably some of the most successful artists around, with many chart-topping hits between them and previous headline performances – most notably Eilish’s Glastonbury 2022 headline slot, which made her the youngest ever solo headliner earlier this year.
