Reading and Leeds Festival organisers appear to have confirmed the events will go ahead this summer, after plans to ease lockdown were announced. Under the government’s plan, limits on social contact in England could be gone by 21 June, if Covid is under control. The twin-site festival is due to take place from 27 to 29 August. “Following the government’s recent announcement, we can’t wait to get back to the fields this summer,” Reading and Leeds’ Twitter feed said, adding: “Let’s go!”
