Leeds festival, the sister to Reading festival, a yearly event that happens at both of these venues. Containing amazing headliners that play both festivals over August bank holiday every year! Myself, I have always been interested in Leeds festival due to its variety in music. I have a wide taste in music and Leeds/Reading never fail to ...  Read the complete review

did anyone els think that the toilet burning on the last night of the leeds festival was a bit extreme?....I myself watched as thugs from the city centre stormed through the gates to create a riot on the yellow and red campsites. my tent was also a victim of the mindless violence and foul activity launched upon us by the morons in tracksuits ...  Read the complete review

If you are going to go to a festival this year make it Leeds. I have been to Leeds three of the last 4 years, and everytime is differnt! Everytime is excellent! Every year you have new experiences from the previous year. The bands are always of the highest quality, from the sterephonics to the verve to blink 182 and limp biskit! there are bands to ...  Read the complete review

A lot of people say that the Leeds festival is just a lesser quality Reading but this years will take some beating. The second leg of the Carling weekend saw bands like Blink 182, Stereophonics, Oasis, Foo fighters and Slipknot descend on Leeds for three days. To name all the bands would take forever but the quality was outstanding. The only ...  Read the complete review

What a Nightmare Buildup! 2 days before the saturday (which was my only day as i didn't rate the other lineups) Eminem pulls out. He was 1/3rd of the reason i was going and then he can't go. Then it's forecast as thunderstorms and sure enough it rained for like 36 hours in a row. So I was not looking forward to it at all. But am i glad ...  Read the complete review

85 quid for a 3 day festival is an awful lot of money but the lineup was the best of all the festivals over the summer. The headliners on the three days were Stereophonics, pulp and Oasis (I didnt stay for Oasis they were pretty poor- as expected). Stereophonics played a fantastic set that kept most of the audience dancing thourout and pulp ...  Read the complete review

Ok so your going to the festival. good. but what about the area that is directly around the music? Well first things first it takes place at temple newsam 4miles out from leeds city center. The buses run from the bus station in leeds, 5mins away from train station. The journey is 30mins and should cost 1.50. So not expensive. Temple newsam is ...  Read the complete review

I can?t wait for this festival. Everyone should go if they get the chance. It is £86 for the whole weekend but it is well worth it. A chance to see brilliant live acts like primal scream, rage against the machine and the foo fighters can not be missed. For anyone who is interested there are rumours circulating that this could be the last oasis gig ...  Read the complete review

Often the reason for taking in the summer festivals is to see the big name headliners and Leeds2000 should certainly live up to all expectations on that front. However if you are there on Monday to see the likes of Oasis or primal scream, you may be well rewarded by coming to the Carling Premier stage to see both I am Kloot and ...  Read the complete review

In it's inception last year as the "Reading of the North", the organisers admitted that there were a few kinks to be ironed out. When the line-up was announced though, the problems last year were forgotton rapidly as tickets began to sell. As more and more bands confirmed, the sale of the tickets grew as did the promises of the ...  Read the complete review

Well done to the organiser's of the Leeds/Reading Festival on getting such a top quality line-up. I attended the festival and it was absolutly brilliant. Each and every band the performed was brilliant and gave their all (except Daphe & Celeste, who were pelted with bottles when they got on stage, and then they were mine-ming when they did ...  Read the complete review
