Thousands of music fans will be flocking to Richfield Avenue this Bank Holiday Weekend for the Reading Festival 2015. The summer may be drawing to a close but it will not be going quietly thanks to the music event's epic line-up.
The festival is already in full swing having kicked off earlier on Friday 28 August but there is still time to check the IBTimes UK's guide on the weather forecast, travel updates, who is performing and when and where you can watch the sets...

There are two public car parks on the Reading Festival site with weekend ticket-holders able to buy tickets from the white car park gate. All day ticket-holders are expected to buy their tickets from the green car park gate.
