Leeds Festival 2026 will take place from 27 to 30 August at Bramham Park, with around 75,000 festival-goers expected. The event shares its lineup with Reading Festival, as the sister shows run on the same weekend. Organisers said the events would be the only UK festival appearances for all six headliners next year.
Headliners and stage splits
This year marks the first time in 25 years that the headliners are exclusively British and Irish acts. Kasabian will headline Thursday on The Grid, ahead of their ninth studio album Act III due in September. Friday sees Chase & Status and Florence + The Machine headline, following the latter's 2025 album Everybody Scream.
Saturday features Charli XCX and Fontaines D.C., with Charli's performance being her only UK festival appearance of the year. Sunday's headliners are Raye, performing songs from her 2026 album THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE, and Dave, supporting his album The Boy Who Played The Harp.
Stage splits and set times have been announced for all four days, with acts including The Blossoms, Josh Baker, Skepta, and more across The Grid, The Gallery, The Warehouse, The Ballroom, and The Canopy stages.
