Leeds festival 2022 full line up and stages as Dave and Rage Against the Machine are among the headliners

This month, Leeds festival 2002 will take place in the spectacular grounds of Bramham Park. As one the biggest UK festivals, the music event is expected to see around 100,000 people attend on the August bank holiday weekend from Friday, August 26 to Sunday, August 28.

Returning after the restrictions of Covid-19, the music festival will be at full capacity and promises to be bigger and better than ever. This year there, will be two main stages, instead of the usual one, to stop any clashing of the headline acts.

In total there are seven stages with six headline acts rather than the traditional three. Set times are still set to be announced on the official Leeds Festival website.

Traditionally, Leeds and Reading festival have favoured alternative rock bands spanning across the genres of punk, metal and grunge. Major acts that have graced the stages since 1999 include Metallica, Marilyn Manson and Guns 'n' Roses.

This year however, there are more pop acts added to bill than has been the case in previous years. 40 new additions have been added to the line-up so here at LeedsLive, we have provided a rundown of what's on offer on each stage.
