After confirming that in 2021 they’ll have two main stages and six headliners, last night Reading and Leeds revealed who are set to take the top spots.

With Stormzy, Catfish and The Bottlemen, Post Malone, Disclosure, Liam Gallagher and Queens of The Stone Age all set to headline, elsewhere Two Door Cinema Club, Doja Cat, 100 gecs, Beabadoobee and more have been announced.

Unsurprisingly, the all male headliners have not gone down well at all, with “Billie” and “Dua” trending online as people wondered why tf their names weren’t on there and many questioning how double the headliners at the festival has still meant women don’t top the bill.

The last time a woman headlined was Paramore in 2014 in a co-headline spot with QOTSA.
