Reading and Leeds Festival 2016 line-up: Disclosure, Foals, Fetty Wap confirmed to perform
Reading and Leeds Festivals have added more acts to their line-up with Foals, Disclosure and Fetty Wap confirmed to perform. The new wave of artists join Red Hot Chili Peppers, who were previously revealed as headliners for the annual UK festivals.
Foals and Disclosure are set to share the stage as co-headliners for the festivals, which take place over the Bank Holiday weekend of 26-28 August 2016. Imagine Dragons, Fetty Wap, Two Door Cinema Club, Parkway Drive and The Internet have also joined the bill with their performances listed as UK festival exclusives.
Other acts confirmed in the new announcement include Jack U (aka Skrillex and Diplo), Crystal Castles, Nothing But Thieves, Oliver Heldens, Hannah Wants, Kurupt FM Presents: Champagne Steam Rooms and CassetteBoy vs DJ Rubbish.
Sharing their anticipation for their co-headline slot, a statement from Foals read: "We're absolutely buzzing to be headlining Reading & Leeds this year. It's a dream come true. I used to watch Nirvana live at Reading '92, on VHS, repeatedly while dying my hair blue and learning how to play guitar, badly. We've worked our way up on our own terms and to be given the chance to headline one of world's most iconic festivals is a huge achievement for us and hopefully a sign for all bands, that, if you stick to your guns and focus on what matters, you'll get there and smash it. Onwards and upwards, friends. Long live the guitar band."
Other acts previously announced for Reading & Leeds include The 1975, The Courteneers, Boy Better Know, DJ EZ and Twenty One Pilots.
