In amongst those are Good Charlotte, Nas, Frank Turner and Kano.

Turner commented: "I'm very happy to be making my tenth annual return to Reading and Leeds Festival this summer. That's the record, by miles, and I'm proud of it. They've always been supportive of my career, loyal to me, and I'm more than happy to repay that in kind. It's the best festival in the UK."
