For the Radio 2 Culture Club, Jo chats to festival forecaster Natalie Jamieson about upcoming festivals, including Reading and Leeds.

Originally known as the National Jazz Festival, Reading Festival was first held in 1961. Across the years, line-ups became increasingly focused on blues and rock, before moving to include pop as well.

In 1999, the festival added a second venue in Leeds due to increasing demands, and numbers have continued to grow ever since.

This year, the festivals will take place 25 to 27 August, with Sam Fender, The Killers Billie Eilish, Foals and Imagine Dragons all headlining.
