Whether you're a veteran Reading and Leeds Festival-goer or a complete newbie, things have changed over the years and bosses have switched things up.
This year, the festival will see the likes of Sam Fender, The Killers, The 1975, Billie Eilish and Foals take to the stage to perform alongside acts including Only The Poets and You Me At Six. But no year is the same at Richfield Avenue in Reading and Bramham Park in Leeds.
As excitement continues to grow, bosses behind the weekend event have now released a full guide on what to expect which includes everything from banned items to affordable camping arrangements. This year, each campsite will have an AIRS Hub (Assistance, Information and Response) which will work alongside the security and stewards.
The hubs which will be staffed by the Salvation Army, CGL, Mind, RBFRS, SoulScape, Oxfam, WAVES, Street Pastors and Number 5 Counselling, will be staffed around the clock from Wednesday to Monday. There will be 16 Hubs in total, meaning that whether you've just come back from the arenas or you're relaxing, you're not too far from support.
Here's everything you need to know to get you prepared!

This year, a whole face of music stars are taking to the various stages and we've got you covered. Here's who you can expect to see over the course of the five-day event.
Earlier this year, it was announced Lewis Capaldi would be withdrawing from his set at Reading and Leeds in order to focus on his health. The Scottish hitmaker made the tough decision to put his work on the backbench after admitting to struggling with his Tourettes following a performance at Glastonbury. Shortly after his announcement, the 26-year-old was inundated with support from his adoring fans and celebrity pals, including The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, who was announced as a replacement.
Tickets for Leeds and Reading can be purchased on their respective websites, or on Ticketmaster. Prices range from £92 for day tickets to £265 for the weekend (excluding booking and processing fees). However, should you wish to upgrade to the Lounge access which includes a private bar, food facilities, toilets and a DJ, packages are also available. Camping upgrades to a more glamorous sleeping area are also available.
