Blink 182 to Headline Reading and Leeds 2014

Blink 182 have been confirmed as headliners for the Reading and Leeds 2014 festivals, with Jake Bugg and Disclosure also slated to perform.

Organisers of the festival confirmed that the US pop-punk trio will headline both events, as they did back in 2010. 

Following the announcement, the band’s bassist Mark Hoppus said: “I’m stoked to play Reading & Leeds 2014. It’s our fourth time playing the festivals, and we’re very honoured. The new year will see us in the studio preparing new music, getting ready to rock the fine people of the UK. Prepare for the fury.”

Also confirmed alongside Blink 182, Jake Bugg and Disclosure are Metronomy, Of Mice & Men, I Am Legion and Wilkinson.

The joint festival’s organiser Melvin Benn has previously revealed that he has already booked two of the three festival headliners for next year, saying: “We have headliners in mind and booked actually. Two of the three are done, the last one we are giving due consideration to. Both of the headliners have played before. They are bands actually. They are American and English.”
