Pixies, Foo Fighters and Iron Maiden will all be making exclusive festival appearances at the three day event, which runs concurrently in both Reading and Leeds from Friday 26th to Sunday 28th August. We will be announcing more of the bands confirmed to appear on both the Main Stage and the NME/Radio1 Stage here at 7.15pm. With their only confirmed UK dates and only UK festival dates, the return of Pixies to a festival they made their own with their stunning headline performance in 1990 is a very special moment. This will be your only chance to see the Pixies in the UK this year. If one band have been the epitome of all that the festivals represent in recent years then that band is Foo Fighters. Having nearly collapsed the second stage tent on their debut Reading performance in 1995, it is both an honour and a pleasure to announce Foo Fighter's only English festival appearances. For over 20 years Iron Maiden have been at the forefront of heavy metal and one of the world's greatest live bands, headlining stadiums and major festivals all over the planet and selling over 60 million albums in the process. Their appearances will mark Iron Maiden's first Reading appearance since headlining in 1982 and only UK festival performances this year. Weekend tickets are on sale now priced at £125 per person.
