Blink 182 to play Reading & Leeds

Reading and Leeds Festival have today revealed details of their 2014 line-up. Legendary Blink 182 are set to headline next year’s festival marking their only UK show. Other acts are Disclosure, Metronomy, Of Mice & Men, Wilkinson, I am Legion and Jake Bugg.

Jake Bugg said: “Reading & Leeds have become a bit of a regular feature of my summers lately, so it’s amazing to be asked back again. I was just kind of starting out the first time I played and it was a really important gig for me. Playing this year was fun and seemed like lots more people knew the songs; it was great hearing everyone singing the words back at me. I’m sure playing on the Main Stage will be a different experience again, so it’s exciting. I’ve got my new album out so there’s plenty of time for people to learn the words. It should be pretty special.”

Festival boss, Melvin Benn says: “2013 was a year of exciting additions for Reading & Leeds Festivals, making them bigger and better than ever. With extra stages and genres at both sites, there was a new diversity for all our fans to enjoy. However the core essence of the festival hasn’t changed and I think the line-up for next year will most certainly reflect that.  I know our fans will be delighted to welcome back our first headliners, Blink-182, with what promises to be an amazing show, as well as the brilliant Jake Bugg stepping up to the Main Stage. I can’t wait to reveal the rest of our incredible line-up, so watch this space!”
