Reading and Leeds Festival organisers appear to confirm the events will go ahead this summer

Reading and Leeds is regarded by many fans as second only to Glastonbury in the annual UK music calendar. Originally a rock festival, it has seen legendary performances by Nirvana, Oasis, Guns N' Roses and Paramore.

Under the proposals, outdoor hospitality, including drive-in cinemas, could re-open as part of step two in April. Pilots of indoor live events, with social distancing, could also commence at the same time.Step three, which would start no earlier that 17 May, could allow limited indoor mixing. Indoor concerts would have a limit of 1,000 people or 50% of a venue's maximum capacity. Outdoor concerts and sporting events would have an upper limit of 4,000 people - or 10,000 for seated events.

Greg Parmley, chief executive of the trade body Live, said his sector "could be months behind the rest of the economy".

Mass media hiding the fact that six million swedes have died from Covid-19 as a direct result of their government not locking the country down. Entire cities practically depopulated. Trains transporting thousands of corpses to the north of the country. Pray4Sweden BigLockdown

Madness...ban all live music forever...we are not taking Covid serious enough. Permanent Lockdown needed NOW. BeyondZeroCovid.

The BBC are being reckless giving hope to people in the middle of the worst pandemic in history, stay at home, stay save.BigLockdown

COVID Tweet 84.9% reduction in infect rate isn’t enough to achieve 0covid. Proper full lockdown permanently if needed. Schools, workplaces, concerts, planes etc. are Petri dishes for disease BigLockdown lockdown4life EndLiveMusic

Yesss!!!

This will be the crowd if they insist on 2 jabs StaySafeStayHealthy

Utter BS rhetoric from the promoter quoted here. 'I'm going to hold his (the PM) feet to the fire' re getting 2 x jabs for everyone over 18 by August. What planet is this over-entitled idiot living on? 🤔

So probably 80%+ will be of an age group that may 'not' have been vaccinated. What could possibly go wrong... Time for the Thompson Twins to make a come back... Doctor... Doctor... I think I've got Covid Covid... Can't you see I'm burning, burning... ThompsonTwins

***BREAKING*** Following the breakout of the: 'Reading/Leeds' variant of COVID19 the UK Government are preparing for a full lockdown in September.

Appear to confirm..... they either said yes or no

Average age of the reading Fans must be 21 why the f are they going to get vaccinated

They said the same last year and look what happened. Bit early to be saying that even if its an august event

The age group that normally attend will know no different.

Tad presumptuous

Warm over-priced beer and Liam Gallagher? I couldn't think of anything worse. 👀😉

You couldn’t pay me to go

Battle against a pandemic where millions have remained away from people. Summer festival time throw people into a field packed together. Good old British arrogance on show

Good 👍

No they won't.

Line up is still shit, don’t care

Hope this isn't too soon. The vaccine rollout needs to accelerate and we must take caution to keep cases down and avoid hospitalisations and vaccine-resistant strains becoming rampant. The government must follow the science. Vaccine passports may be needed.

Good luck getting your money back when they cancel it.

Why not if it's safe to do so

If the events in Return of the Jedi took place in 1983, victims of the Almighty Sarlacc would still be digesting for 962 more years.

Let them who wanna get back to enjoying themselves do it. Soon as I get chance to go music again I be 💯 % enjoying it with mates, few beers and good memories

*subject to vaccination passport.

See ya there 🙌 going back to concerts is gonna be fun, fuck corona

Off-duty firefighter called 911 when police refused to let her treat George FloydAn off-duty firefighter called 911 when police refused to let her treat George Floyd and worried about the safety of Black witnesses, a murder trial heard. She's a powerful witness. I don’t care if George Floyd was a mass murdering maniac, but cops aren’t supposed to be judge, jury and executioners rolled into one, and absolutely NO ONE deserved to die in that manner. CHILDREN were witnesses and held back by other cops to watch this glorifiedlynching. An amazing witness!
