2015 Main Stage Acts at the Reading and Leeds Festivals

This blog post was updated on May 12, 2020.

Two of Britain’s biggest annual music festivals – the Reading and Leeds Festivals – take place over the same weekend at the end of August and featuring alternating line ups. The two cities are about three and a half hours drive or train ride away from each other. So if you’re a fan of any particular artists performing at the festivals (and you can bag tix for both) you could possibly get to see them play live among thousands of other fans … maybe even within 24 hours of each concert.
This year’s roster for Reading and Leeds is going to be as epic as in years past with over 100 bands, solo artists, comedians, films and more jammed into an action packed schedule.
Ready for the mother of all weekends? Here’s the lowdown on the 2015 Main Stage line up for both festivals coming soon from Friday the 28th to Sunday the 30th.
