Reading and Leeds Festivals are in full swing with thousands preparing for a weekend of music and events.
This year, 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.
The gates for the 2023 event opened on Wednesday as people headed to the fields to try and secure the best camp spot which would ensure they're close to all of the action. But as music lovers prepare for the headline artists to take to the various stages, bosses have now confirmed set times.
Before The Mirror heads to Leeds, we're here to bring you all you need to know in order to prepare yourself. This year, there are various safety measures put in place to protect festivalgoers with each campsite having a designated AIRS Hub (Assistance, Information and Response) which will work alongside the security and stewards.
As well as this, various measures have been put in place to ensure that everybody across both sites as safe as possible, with a new list of banned items being distributed – this can be seen here.
