Pepsi MAX presents Reading & Leeds Festival has today unveiled six massive headliners for 2026. Taking over the Main Stages across next August Bank Holiday weekend are Charli XCX, Chase & Status, Dave, Florence + The Machine, Fontaines D.C. and RAYE, marking the first time in 25 years that the festivals will showcase an exclusively British and Irish headline bill.

The countdown to summer has officially begun. In just 224 days, Belgium’s world-renowned Rock Werchter will once again turn the Festivalpark in Werchter into a global hub for live music. Excitement ramps up even further with 20 new names joining the 2026 bill.
