More bands have been added to the Reading & Leeds Festival line-ups.
Good news, everyone! Reading & Leeds Festival 2016 has just gotten even bigger thanks to the addition of Parkway Drive, Imagine Dragons and Nothing But Thieves, alongside a host of other acts from different genres.
Speaking about joining the bill, Parkway Drive singer Winston McCall says: ‘Leeds and Reading has such a crazy reputation worldwide – we are so stoked to be part of it this year. It seems like every year the bar gets raised higher and higher and we are looking forward to upping it once again! BRING IT!”
These bands will join the previously announced headliners Red Hot Chili Peppers as well as twenty one pilots, Crossfaith, Slaves and, notably, the emotional return of Eagles Of Death Metal.
Reading and Leeds takes place over the August bank holiday weekend between 26 – 28 August, 2016. Weekend tickets are priced at £213 (including booking fees) and are available right now from the Kerrang! Ticket Store. More announcements are expected over the coming months, so watch this space…
