Reading & Leeds festivals have unveiled a huge new dance stage for their 2024 editions, called The Chevron.

The Prodigy, Skrillex and Sonny Fodera will headline the 40,000 capacity arena at this year’s festival, with the stage also hosting the world’s biggest silent disco.

Discussing the stage, which will also host Nia Archives, Barry Can’t Swim and more and feature floating LED lights, festival organiser Melvin Benn said: “The Chevron is more than just a physical stage; it’s a testament to Reading & Leeds’ continued commitment to innovation and industry leadership. We demonstrated this previously, with the introduction and success of dual main stages in 2021.

“This year I saw the opportunity to do something new and truly special, reflecting the audience’s evolving tastes and cutting edge production the show is known for. This elevates our electronic and hip-hop music offerings, while still delivering six main-stage headliners and a strong representation across other genres. I can’t wait for everyone to experience The Chevron this summer.”
