Reading Festival 2026

Weekend Tickets are valid for campsite entry from 8am on Thursday 27th August 2026. Reading Festival Tickets are only valid when purchased directly from official agents of Festival Republic. We do not accept Print at Home tickets, Booking Confirmations, screenshots or photos of tickets. Each individual attending must present their own individual ticket at the gate to have the barcode scanned. Tickets for this event have a unique barcode which will be scanned on entry and if found to be duplicated, either in error or for fraudulent gain, only the first instance of the ticket scanned will be admitted regardless of original ownership. Customers may be prosecuted if found to have deliberately duplicated and resold tickets for fraudulent gain. Wristbands removed from the wrist, cut or tampered with will be rendered invalid and will not be replaced. Reading Festival will not replace lost or stolen wristbands regardless of proof of purchase.
