Fans are hoping that Californian rock band Blink-182 are still on track to headline Leeds and Reading after cancelling several concerts in Missouri last week due to illness.
The trio, comprising the classic lineup again of Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker since 2022, headlined the final day of Chicago’s Lollapalooza in early August, to much fanfare.
“Blink-182’s recently reunited classic trio put on a spectacle both nostalgic and refreshed,” said Rolling Stone. “How strangely heartwarming to watch Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge swap dick jokes together again.”
Given that the band are rarely in the UK, and that Leeds and Reading is one of the final major festivals of the season, their performances will be for the books. Here’s what’s to know about their upcoming sets.
What time are Blink-182 playing at Leeds and Reading Festival?
Blink-182 are playing on the Main Stage at Reading on Friday from 21.45 to 23.15.
The band will then be playing on the Main Stage at Leeds on Saturday between 21.15 and 22.45.
Can I still get tickets?
Yes, tickets for both Leeds and Reading are still available, costing from £115.00 for day tickets, and £325.00 for weekend tickets.
