The events both happen on the [[bank holiday]] weekend in August (on Friday, Saturday, Sunday), and share the same bill (occasionally with one or two exceptions). The Leeds site began in [[1999]], while the original festival dates back to [[National Jazz Festival]] and settled in Reading in [[1971]]. The following is a list of acts that have played at the festival. ==2008== ===Main Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Rage Against the Machine]] *[[Queens of the Stone Age]] *[[The Fratellis]] *[[The Enemy (UK band)|The Enemy]] *[[Biffy Clyro]] *[[Serj Tankian]] *[[Dizzee Rascal]] *[[Taking Back Sunday]] *[[Get Cape.

Extra security were brought in to handle the massive crowds of people trying to get into the tent since it had been confirmed earlier in the day through [[The Sun]] newspaper. [[Foo Fighters]] were also confirmed through various sources to have a secret slot planned on the Friday of the Reading leg just before [[Ash (band)|Ash]] in the Radio 1/NME tent, but Dave Grohl fell ill and the slot was pulled. Subsequently, Ash had to rehearse several songs that weren't planned for the set just hours before they were meant to go on. A weekend ticket cost £145 (plus a maximum of £7 booking fee). ==2006== ===Main Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Franz Ferdinand (band)|Franz Ferdinand]] *[[Kaiser Chiefs]] *[[Yeah Yeah Yeahs]] *[[Belle and Sebastian]] *[[Fall Out Boy]] *[[The Subways]] *[[Panic! at the Disco]] *[[Dashboard Confessional]] *[[Fightstar]] *[[Towers of London]] || *[[Muse (band)|Muse]] *[[Arctic Monkeys]] *[[The Streets]] *[[Feeder (band)|Feeder]] *[[Dirty Pretty Things (band)|Dirty Pretty Things]] *[[The Futureheads]] *[[The Cribs]] *[[Wolfmother]] *[[Flogging Molly]] *[[Aiden]] || *[[Pearl Jam]] *[[Placebo (band)|Placebo]] *[[My Chemical Romance]] *[[Slayer]] *[[Bullet for My Valentine]] *[[Less Than Jake]] *[[Taking Back Sunday]] *[[Killswitch Engage]] *[[Mastodon (band)|Mastodon]] |} ===Radio 1 Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Primal Scream]] *[[Dizzee Rascal]] *[[The Vines]] *[[Secret Machines]] *[[Mystery Jets]] *[[Peaches (artist)|Peaches]] *[[Gogol Bordello]] *[[Guillemots (band)|Guillemots]] *[[The Long Blondes]] *[[Fields (band)|Fields]] *[[Duels (band)|Duels]] || *[[The Raconteurs]] *[[Coheed and Cambria]] *[[Jet (band)|Jet]] *[[Clap Your Hands Say Yeah]] *[[The Fall (band)|The Fall]] *[[The Automatic]] *[[be your own PET]] *[[Milburn (band)|Milburn]] *[[Plan B (rapper)|Plan B]] *[[Giant Drag]] *[[747s]] || *[[Maxïmo Park]] *[[The Rakes]] *[[The Kooks]] *[[Boy Kill Boy]] *[[Broken Social Scene]] *[[Goldie Lookin' Chain]] *[[Hope of the States]] *[[The Dresden Dolls]] *[[¡Forward, Russia!]] *[[Tapes 'n Tapes]] *[[Metric (band)|Metric]] *[[The Marshals]] |} ===Dance Arena=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Friday |- | *[[Soulwax]] (Nite Versions Set - live) *[[Vitalic]] (live) *[[2 Many DJs]] *[[Headman]] (DJ set, Reading only) *[[Erol Alkan]] (Leeds only) *[[Coldcut]] *[[Lady Sovereign]] *[[Sway DaSafo|Sway]] *[[Spank Rock]] *[[Shitdisco]] *[[Superthriller]] |} ===Radio 1 Lock-Up Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday |- | *[[Sick Of It All]] *[[Thursday (band)|Thursday]] *[[Body Count]] featuring [[Ice T]] *[[Hundred Reasons]] *[[Bouncing Souls]] *[[Rise Against]] *[[Boysetsfire]] *[[Lightyear (band)|Lightyear]] *[[Municipal Waste (band)|Municipal Waste]] *[[Send More Paramedics]] *[[King Blues]] || *[[Reel Big Fish]] *[[Anti Flag]] *[[Millencollin]] *[[Flogging Molly]] *[[Alexisonfire]] *[[Hawthorne Heights]] *[[Against Me!]] *[[Capdown]] *[[The Bled]] *[[Captain Everything!]] *[[Adequate Seven]] *[[Sonic Boom Six]] |} ===Carling Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Bedouin Soundclash]] *[[Twilight Singers]] *[[Eagles of Death Metal]] *[[Howling Bells]] *[[Bromheads Jacket]] *[[The Sunshine Underground]] *[[Little Man Tate (band)|Little Man Tate]] *[[Get Cape.

[[Audioslave]] pulled out of their slot due to the band being busy recording new material, [[The Shins]] pulled out for undisclosed reasons, and [[From First to Last]] pulled out due to the then lead singer (Sonny Moore) needing throat surgery, [[Paramore]] had to pull out because their singer (Hayley Williams) had throat problems and were replaced by [[Sonic Boom Six]] lower in the bill. [[Story of the Year]] and [[Bleeding Through]] also pulled out for undisclosed reasons. [[Flogging Molly]] played twice at both festivals, once in the punk tent and once on the main stage. Tickets were £135 for a weekend ticket and £60 for a day ticket. This was the first festival in which, due to popular demand the Punk and underground tent extended to two days. This year saw the addition of a second barrier at the main stage. There was no policy on admission into the inner circle with both sides wide open, but the intention was to reduce crowd density at the very front. Officially the inner circle had a capacity of 20,000. Rioting allegedly did not occur this year and though this was mainly due to the amount of rain on the Sunday night, Mean Fiddler took a new approach to trying to combat the problem. As opposed to increasing security they managed to obtain later licences allowing some entertainments to last until 4 am. This together with the general maintenance of amenities until early Monday morning aimed to keep people occupied preventing riots. ==2005== ===Main Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Pixies]] *[[The Killers (band)|The Killers]] *[[Queens of the Stone Age]] *[[The Coral]] *[[Elbow (band)|Elbow]] *[[Graham Coxon]] *[[Dropkick Murphys]] *[[The Wedding Present]] *[[Goldie Lookin' Chain]] *[[Do Me Bad Things]] || *[[Foo Fighters]] *[[Kings of Leon]] *[[Razorlight]] *[[The Charlatans (British band)|The Charlatans]] *[[Dinosaur Jr]] *[[Roots Manuva]] *[[Biffy Clyro]] *[[All-American Rejects]] *[[From Autumn to Ashes]] || *[[Iron Maiden]] *[[Marilyn Manson (band)|Marilyn Manson]] *[[Incubus (band)|Incubus]] *[[Iggy Pop|Iggy]] and [[The Stooges]] *[[NOFX]] *[[Funeral for a Friend]] *[[Alkaline Trio]] *[[Turbonegro]] *[[My Chemical Romance]] (Leeds) *[[Bullet for My Valentine]] (Reading) |} ===NME/Radio 1 Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Kasabian]] *[[Black Rebel Motorcycle Club]] *[[Cooper Temple Clause]] *[[My Chemical Romance]] (Reading) *[[Bullet for My Valentine]] (Leeds) *[[Fightstar]] *[[The Subways]] *[[Death from Above 1979]] *[[The Dead 60s]] *[[The Blood Brothers (band)|The Blood Brothers]] *[[yourcodenameis:milo]] *[[The Black Velvets]] || *[[The Tears]] *[[Babyshambles]] *[[Arcade Fire]] *[[Hot Hot Heat]] *[[The Kills]] *[[The Others (band)|The Others]] *[[Juliette and the Licks]] *[[Nine Black Alps]] *[[The Cribs]] *[[The Longcut]] *[[Editors]] *[[Louie]] || *[[Bloc Party]] *[[The Futureheads]] *[[LCD Soundsystem]] *[[British Sea Power]] *[[The Duke Spirit]] *[[Maxïmo Park]] *[[Hal (band)|Hal]] *[[Sons and Daughters (band)|Sons and Daughters]] *[[The Rakes]] *[[Towers of London]] *[[Art Brut (band)|Art Brut]] *[[Boy Kill Boy]] |} ===Dance Arena=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Lemon Jelly]] *[[Audio Bullys]] *[[Fort Minor]] *[[Kano (rapper)|Kano]] *[[DJ Format]] featuring [[Abdominal (rapper)|Abdominal]] and D-Sisive *[[Dreadzone]] *[[Ralph Myerz and the Jack Herren Band]] *[[Performance (band)|Performance]] *[[The Infadels]] *[[Akala (rapper)|Akala]] *[[Bedouin Soundclash]] || See ''Radio 1 Lock-Up Stage'' || *[[Mylo]] *[[M.I.A]] *[[Blackalicious]] *[[Kieran Hebden|Four Tet]] *[[Buck 65]] *[[VHS or Beta]] *[[Hot Chip]] *[[T Raumschmiere]] *[[The Modern (band)|The Modern]] |} ===Radio 1 Lock-Up Stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Saturday |- |Leeds Sunday |- | *[[Hatebreed]] *[[Bad Religion]] *[[Antiflag]] *[[Rise Against]] *[[Eighteen Visions]] *[[Dwarves (band)|Dwarves]] *[[Capdown]] *[[Million Dead]] *[[Emanuel (band)|Emanuel]] *[[The Explosion]] *[[Senses Fail]] *[[No Comply]] |} ===Carling stage=== {| class="wikitable" |- |Reading Friday || Reading Saturday || Reading Sunday |- |Leeds Saturday || Leeds Sunday || Leeds Friday |- | *[[Ladytron]] *[[Charlotte Hatherley]] *[[Saul Williams]] *[[The National (band)|The National]] *[[Mando Diao]] *[[The Paddingtons]] *[[We Are Scientists]] *[[The Blood Arm]] *[[Cherubs (band)|Cherubs]] *[[Two Gallants (band)|Two Gallants]] *[[The Roger Sisters]] *[[Thirsty Merc]] *[[Fell City Girl]] *[[Puscha]] || *[[The Go!

[[The Transplants]] were originally booked to play the festivals but pulled out in mid-August due to illness. [[Jimmy Eat World]] also pulled out due to other commitments. Other drop outs include Willy Mason, Simple Plan and Fall Out Boy (also due to the VMAs).

Although they played second on the ''Main Stage'', it was billed as ''with'' Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, reflecting their smaller status. [[Jay Z]] also pulled out, with [[The Darkness]] moving further up the bill to replace him.
