As Glastonbury closes and the inevitable thousands of previously ambivalent punters who’ve just watched a weekend of BBC coverage, despite the kind of banter from the trying-way-too-hard-to-be-alternative ‘presenters’ that makes your toes curl, suddenly decide that going to a festival this summer would be a good idea after all, we get news that Reading Festival has sold out. And that means that Leeds probably won’t be too far behind.

At all.

There’s only seven weeks to go, so check out the Leeds Festival ticket page now if you want to make sure you don’t miss out on what’s arguably the North’s biggest date on the festival calendar.

And at least then you won’t have to listen to the BBC.
