PLOT
Taking to the main stage of Reading Festival 2026 as the second of Saturday night’s headliners is multi-award-winning global megastar RAYE. The British singer-songwriter took the world by storm in 2023 with her debut album, My 21st Century Blues. Released to widespread critical acclaim, it saw RAYE make history at the BRITs, taking home a record-breaking six awards the following year. 2026 saw her complete a huge world tour and achieve a UK number one album with This Music May Contain Hope, proving she shows no signs of slowing down. Bringing her big band, big vocals and big energy to Reading, expect a headline performance that will be nothing short of unforgettable.
