Eminem announced as final Reading & Leeds headliner

Having already announced Muse and Kasabian to top this year's billing at Reading & Leeds, the festival has now unveiled that Eminem will be the third artist to headline the August event.

The legendary rapper will be joined by a number of new additions across the weekend including Haim, Blossoms, You Me At Six, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, Sundara Karma, Cabbage, Lethal Bizzle and many more, with Eminem topping the bill on the Saturday night.

Festival organiser Melvin Benn stated, “Eminem returning to Reading and Leeds is beyond exciting. His 2013 headline performance was incredible and I can’t wait to have him back. In addition to our third and final headliner (joining Kasabian and Muse) we’ve announced over 70 additional acts to this year’s line up - it’s looking stronger than ever.”

Tickets for either Reading or Leeds Festival are available at ReadingAndLeedsFestival.com, taking place from the 25th-27th August, and you can see the full line-up so far below.
