They never did anyway. Have you even watched BBC4?

Last year they showed the headliners and this year they not.

I don't think Liam Gallagher will do the secret set because he did reading last year and he is still doing the same  tour that reading was on last year.

St.Vincent is touring the uk the week after and playing a show in leeds on the 28th, would be cool if she played a secret set as she is free

No chance St. Vincent would play.

Anyone know if you can turn up on the day and pay £20 for parking still? FAQ says "subject to availability"...

Pretty much saying the same in the email, could be worth a try though 

"Weekend parking at Reading festival have now sold out.

 Please be advised that purchasing at parking ticket at the gate on the day is subject to availability and can't be guaranteed. For alternative parking options and information please visit: https://www.readingfestival.com/information-category/travel"

Cheers man, not sure whether to risk it! Been hammering eBay and Gumtree but people know they can get £50+ now (one sold yesterday for £96).

He's at that RIZE Festival this weekend which was V fest, and usually there are no crossover acts.

There are a couple lower down the bill this year (Spring King and Ten Tonnes off the top of my head, there may be more) but I don’t see why Miles Kane would do a secret set. It wouldn’t be that big a deal and he’d end up in the sort of slot he’d likely be booked in anyway

Tom Grennan, Alma, Spring King and Bad Soungs just off the top of my head, I think him doing RiZe wouldn't stop him doing Reading, as the post before said, he's just simply not big enough to do a secret set.

In other news bbc4 will not show coverage of reading and Leeds this year.

They haven't for a few years apart from the headliners. There'll be a live stream though, I'd imagine.

[VCK]

Odd that this is the worst line up I can think of yet it's the first time weekend tickets have sold out for about ten years.

Didn’t Reading sell out early August last year too? Weekend tickets anyway and definitely sat night. 

[devilman]

Pretty sure Reading has claimed to sell out every year for years. It is a bad line up though. And I'll still be wishing I was there at Leeds come wed night.

Reading has pretty much sold out all but a couple of weekends since 2008 hasn't it?

Reading still sells weekend out....sometimes only just. It's Leeds that never does now.

The signing tent looks strong this year, especially the Sunday at Reading

Where is the signing tent lineup?

[gregbanks]

This is a naughty signing tent

[frontsidecab]

Big Shaq at 1.15 for Reading aswell ? 

[Dangerbreaks]

How long are the signing tent queues normally? Got nothing planned for when Sum 41 are in there and would love to meet them

For me last year I went to 3, all of which i went at the time they started and they took about 30-40 mins (most run about 10-15 mins longer than they say)

Depends really. I went to the Bastille one last year, queued for an hour and still didn't get to meet them. I was about halfway through the queue by the time it started moving too. Declan McKennas was halfway through as I got there and there was barely a queue.

Jesus, I bet they’re as dull in person as they are on stage 

[gregbanks]

Can I buy something to sign there or do I bring my own?
