Foo Fighters for Reading and Leeds

The Foo Fighters are to headline this year’s Reading and Leeds Festivals.

The Pixies and Iron Maiden have also reportedly agreed to headline the weekend.

According to NME.com a festival source said: “They’ve bagged Pixies’ only UK shows next year, and there’s a chance they could be their last ever in Britain. It’s an open secret that Foo Fighters are playing as well.”

Reading and Leeds tickets are likely to go on sale in March, with an official announcement to come on the final line-up around the same time.
