Festival lovers, time to get hyped. Reading and Leeds Festival, one of the nation’s biggest musical celebrations, has just revealed four headliners for its 2025 edition. And it’s already looking monumental.
Top of the bill at R+L next year will be rap titan Travis Scott, pop sensation Chappell Roan, Sheffield rockers Bring Me The Horizon and Irish hitmaker Hozier. It’ll be Scott’s only European date in 2025, Roan’s only headline show in England, and the only UK festival show of 2025 for both BMTH and Hozier.
Elsewhere on the lineup are more huge names like AJ Tracey, Trippie Redd, Bloc Party and Suki Waterhouse. Reading and Leeds lineups are always huge, and 2025 is certainly no different.
