The 2021 Reading and Leeds Festival took place between 27 and 29 August 2021 in Reading, Berkshire, and Leeds, West Yorkshire, over the August bank holiday weekend. The headliners were Liam Gallagher, Biffy Clyro (who replaced Queens of the Stone Age), Stormzy, Catfish and the Bottlemen, Post Malone and Disclosure. This was the first Reading and Leeds festival since the 2019 edition as the 2020 edition was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in England.
