  • Reading Festival is only 75 days away as Bramham Park repairs for revellers again
  • This year’s festival is headlined by Blink 182, Fred Again… and Liam Gallagher
  • Festival Republic have released set and stage times for the Southern-based festival so you can start your planning

The set and stage times for this year’s Reading Festival have been revealed.

Festival Republic dropped both the times for this year's festivals in Leeds and Reading, alongside a couple of additional artists announced for the festival including Dasha, Alfie Templeman, Arxx and Nxdia.

Those main stage times have also been accompanied by a full rundown of who is playing on the BBC Introducing Stage this year, offering festival revellers the chance to jump on a number of musical bandwagons before those artists “blow up,” offering you the chance to say you saw them on a smaller stage before they headlined a major festival.

The campsite to Little John's Farm on Richfield Avenue is set to open on August 19 2024, while the main event all begins in the main arena at 12:00pm on Friday, with that evening’s headliner Blink 182 no doubt ready to set the tone for the rest of the weekend with their pop-punk anthems “What’s My Age Again,” “First Date” and their more sombre efforts from their self-titled album including “I Miss You.

Anything can happen at Leeds and Reading Festival, so expect some surprises in the weeks to come also. But before then, what’s the current line-up for Reading Festival 2024?
