Reading and Leeds 2015 saw an unforgettable weekend of music, including headline acts Mumford & Sons, Metallica and The Libertines. Today they have announced that Weekend tickets for 2016 and Instalment tickets will be on sale today for a limited time at this year's price of £205.00 via Ticketmaster. The dual site event will take place on 26th, 27th, 28th August 2016.

Festival Republic's Melvin Benn reflects on the weekend: “This year has been an incredible highlight for Reading and Leeds. Metallica brought us the largest production in the history of the festivals, whilst Mumford & Sons and The Libertines proved themselves worthy of their headline name. I would like to thank our sponsors and media partners for their ongoing support. I know it will be difficult to beat, but I can already promise 2016 is going to be worth the wait.”
