“We are beyond excited to be returning to Reading and Leeds for our first fully fledged headline slot,” said Bring Me The Horizon’s frontman Oli Sykes in a statement. “We are going to bring hands down the greatest show of our careers. It’s going to be our only UK performance next year and the final European show of the NEX GEN campaign before the band take time away, so if you want to see BMTH next year, this truly is your only chance. Can’t wait.”
Day and weekend tickets for the event will go on sale Dec. 9 at https://www.readingfestival.com/tickets and https://www.leedsfestival.com/tickets.
Roan will continue her slate of successful festival appearances through 2025, including a headlining slot at Primavera Sound in Barcelona in June. Also headlining a UK Festival for the very first time, Hozier returns to Reading and Leeds after performing at the festival in 2014.
“Right now, we’re witnessing an exciting wave of inspiring voices breaking through in pop culture, and this line-up captures that energy perfectly,” said Melvin Benn, managing director of Festival Republic. “This is one of the youngest average ages for headliners in years, and that’s very exciting in itself. We are delighted to welcome Chappell Roan’s debut, an inspiring new pop star poised to define a generation, sitting alongside one of our favourite modern songwriters, Hozier. We are also proud to welcome back Bring Me The Horizon, a band who have grown with us over the years to become the UK’s biggest alternative act. Add to that the massive European exclusive appearance of Travis Scott and an unrivalled selection of dance music’s biggest names, and you’ve got something truly special.”
