Reading and Leeds Festival Catch up, 2021: Stormzy on BBC 3

Reading and Leeds Festival

2021: Stormzy

The legendary festival returns with a sell-out crowd of 90,000, following an enforced break in 2020. \n\nThe first major headliner of the weekend is Stormzy, one of the UK’s most inspiring and influential cultural figures. As well as being a hugely successful and award winning artist, he also recently unveiled his own figure at the famous London waxwork museum.\n\nSince his game-changing Glastonbury 2019 performance, where he became the first British rapper to headline the festival, he has released a platinum-selling album Heavy is the Head and cemented his status as a once-in-a-generation artist.\n \nThis is his long-awaited live return in front of a massive crowd, so expect many of his biggest songs and the biggest of productions.
