The Reading and Leeds festivals are a pair of annual music festivals taking place in Reading and Leeds in England simultaneously, sharing the same bill and the same lineup. Held at Little John's Farm on Richfield Avenue in central Reading, the Reading Festival is the oldest surviving popular music festival. The Leeds event is held in Bramham Park, near Wetherby. The twin events attract many big-name bands. Rock, alternative, indie, punk and metal have tended to the major draws. Campsites are available at both sites.
