The Festival Republic Stage is the place to see the headliners of tomorrow with the hottest up and coming names in music lined up for the Reading & Leeds Festival. This is the place Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay and Muse first appeared and more recently Hot Chip, Florence + the Machine, Glasvegas, La Roux and Foals. This really is the place for anybody looking to be the first to spot the next wave of important artists. Headliners for 2010 are the irrepressible MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS, Irish heroes ASH and the acclaimed BRITISH SEA POWER.
On the NME/Radio 1 Stage Welsh trio THE JOY FORMIDABLE have been added to the line up after Miike Snow was sadly forced to pull out. Full details of all the new names are below.
There are still lots more names to be announced including the full line up for the BBC Introducing Stage and the Alternative Stage. More news will follow soon.
The READING & LEEDS FESTIVAL is held on 27th – 29th August 2010 at Little John’s Farm in Reading and Bramham Park in Leeds. Tickets for this event are now sold out.
